Item Summary: This item is for a preliminary plat that consists of 15 lots on 3.04 acres. The property is zoned R-1 Single Family Residential. The preliminary plat is in preparation of a single family infill development. The property is surrounded by developed single family to the west, north, and east, and Southwest Parkway to the south.

The subdivision will access Southwest Parkway, which is a minor arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan. The proposed plat is in compliance with the Subdivision Regulations. Item Background: The subject property was annexed into the city in 1968 and has always been zoned for single family. A preliminary plat was denied for this property in early 2004.
