Item: Discussion and possible action on a Final Plat for Oxburgh Drive Phase 1 (FP)
located at the Crowley Tract on State Highway 6. (02- 00500244)
Applicant: Wallace Phillips for Spring Creek CS Development, Ltd.
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat with the
condition that the attached Staff Review Comments #2 be addressed.
Item Summary: This item is for the consideration of a Final Plat for Oxburgh Drive.
This roadway is in association with future commercial and residential development on
the Crowley Tract. The Developer wishes to plat and construct the street rather than
wait for various rezonings and additional plats to proceed. Oxburgh will join the future
Decatur Drive. Decatur will be constructed from the future SH 40 to adjoin the existing
Decatur Drive in Shenandoah.
Please remember this Final Plat is only for Oxburgh Drive, itself, and not for a
developable parcel.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations:
Land Use Plan: The LUP shows residential development in the area. However, the
properties fronting the highway are zoned commercial. West of the floodplain and
north of Oxburgh is currently zoned residential, R -4.
Thoroughfare Plan: This roadway is on the plan as a major collector.
Parkland Dedication: N/A to this plat.
Open Space Dedication: None
Sidewalks: Sidewalks are required on both sides of the collector.
Compliance with Master plan /Preliminary Plat The Developer has requested this
street to be a minor collector and was shown as such on the Preliminary Plat.
However, the Thoroughfare Plan shows a major collector. In addition, Ken Fogle,
Transportation Planner, performed an analysis showing a major collector was
warranted.
Greenways: The roadway will cross the greenway/ floodplain. A CLOMR has been
approved for this crossing.
Bikeways: Oxburgh is not on the bike plan. Decatur is on the bike plan.
Compliance w /Subdivision Regulations: This plat complies with applicable
regulations.
Zoned: AO
