• • • AGENDA ITEM 5.A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Paul Bengtson P &Z MEETING DATE: October 11, 2007 TOPIC: Grandview Final Plat BACKGROUND Royal Oaks Realty received approval of a Preliminary Plat for Grandview from the City Council on August 13, 2007. The applicant is now requesting final plat approval of the eight lot residential subdivision that will be known as Grandview. ANALYSIS The final plat is substantially conforming to the preliminary plat that was approved by the City Council. Title commitments have been forwarded to the city attorney for review and his comments will be incorporated prior to City Council action on the item. The Development Agreement between the city and developer will address the vast majority of the conditions required by Resolution No. 07 -111 which approved the Preliminary Plat. The exceptions being the conditions requiring the vacation of existing roadway easements and the conservation easement will need to be handled separately. The Vacation of the permanent roadway easement was heard by the City Council on October 8, 2007 and the 2nd reading of that ordinance will accompany this final plat and the development agreement to the October 22, 2007 City Council meeting. The Conservation Easement documents have been submitted and mostly mirror the easement granted to the city for Marshan Meadows with a few minor exceptions. The main change is being proposed to address the allowance of docks onto Marshan Lake. The developer's current proposal does not quite meet staffs expectations so we are recommending that it be amended slightly to clarify that docks will be allowed, but all other disturbance of the easement area will be prohibited. This change will be required prior to the City Council review of the Final Plat and an executable copy of the document will need to be submitted prior to the final plat mylars being released to the developer. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of the final plat request. This review is based on the following plans and information: Grandview Conservation Easement Documents received September 17, 2007 Grandview Final Plat received October 4, 2007
