Access to three of the four lots (Lots 1 through 3) will be provided via an existing private street located east the adjacent McDonald's site. While the Ordinance requires all lots be provided access via a public street access, flexibility to this requirement can be accommodated via the PDO. As part of the City's previous consideration of the McDonald's proposal, a determination was made that access to the subject property would be provided by the existing private street. A cross easement and operation and maintenance agreement will be required as part of the Development Agreement. Lots. The SC District requires a minimum lot size of three acres. Through the PDO however, flexibility to this requirement can be provided without need for a variance. As shown on the preliminary plat, the proposed lots range in size from 1.7 to 2.3 acres. As demonstrated via the submission of site plans, the configuration of the proposed lots are conducive to future commercial development. Utilities.
