Each of the lots would be accessed from a proposed private roadway lying within a proposed outlot. BACKGROUND In June of 2001 Mr. Keefe contacted City staff requesting information regarding the potential subdivision of his property. Mr. Keefe was provided with the requirements of the R -X, Rural Executive District. In September of 2001 Mr. Keefe met with the City Council to discuss the potential options for subdividing his property. He expressed at the time, in a letter dated September 19, 2001, that he would like to split off several 2.5 acre parcels from his property due to the economic hardship he was currently experiencing. The council expressed the need for additional information before a decision could be made. City staff prepared a memo to the City Council, dated September 28, 2001, identifying issues with regard to the proposed subdivision and listing options to be explored, including the potential for a clustered development using the Planned Development Overlay District (PDO) requirements. The memo was distributed to Mr. Keefe.
