The City Planner gave a background of the project, explaining that the applicant is looking to subdivide the large property into 11 single family lots with a cul-de-sac on the west side of the property. He noted that the subdivision ordinance requires that any other possible development on the site be shown, even if it is not proposed at the time, which is the case with the lots shown on the east side. He explained that this is the first step in discussing the development and finding out the developer’s intentions. He stated that there are formal steps required by ordinance to subdivide and plat the property that would occur after this if there is City Council support for the project. The City Planner reported that this development is proposed with a 600 foot long cul-de-sac. He explained that even though the City Code states cul-de-sacs should be no more than 500 feet long, it does allow longer ones to accommodate topography or access issues. He stated that there is CONCEPT PLAN REVIEW OF A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT AT 3000 LABORE ROAD; APPLICANT: THE LINCOLN GROUP
