Fox Den Acres page 6 b. Allocation of MUSA Reserve c. Preliminary Plat 2. Deny the project. 3. Continue public hearing and return to staff with direction. (The next meeting is June 9. The deadline for city action is July 9. This would allow only the June 14 and June 28 city council meetings for a final decision unless the applicant extends the review.) RECOMMENDATION Option 2 • The City's growth management policy and subdivision ordinance prohibit development outside of defined growth boundaries. The proposed plat extends beyond the stage 1 (pre - 2010) growth area, the MUSA, the Low Density Sewered Residential land use area, and the R -1 zone. The proposer requests amendments to the comprehensive plan and zoning map to accommodate the extra 3 -4 acres of development. It also would require the vacation of parts of a ponding and flowage easement. There is no clear justification for these actions other than to increase developable area. • Section 1002 -6 of the subdivision ordinance lists criteria for determining if a proposed development is premature. These include consistency with the land use plan, including the staged growth area boundaries. A project that is inconsistent with these criteria is premature. • We do not yet know if water service is adequate. If it isn't, the project is premature.
