STAFF ORIGINATOR: TOPIC: AGENDA ITEM V. E. Jeff Smyser TING DATE: July 9, 2003 Final Plat: Century Farm North BACKGROUND The preliminary plat for Century Farm North was approved by the City Council on April 28. The developer has submitted the final plat for phase 1. Under the new subdivision ordinance, final plats are to be reviewed by the P & Z. This is the first final plat to which the new requirement applies. The developer has requested that the City Council approve the final plat on July 14. This leaves only three business days between the P & Z and Council meetings. Staff has agreed to schedule these meetings, though at the time of writing this report several issues remain, as described below. A final plat submitted June 23 includes platting individual lots for units in phase one of the approved phasing plan. This includes 56 units: 17 single family detached townhomes and 39 single family lots. Of the 39 SF lots, nine of them in Block 4 will be airpark lots. ANALYSIS As required by the subdivision ordinance, the following requirements shall be met before consideration of the final plat by the Planning and Zoning Board or the City Council: a. The final plat shall substantially conform to the approved preliminary plat and phasing plan. b. For plats that consist solely of individual single family residential lots, final plat applications for subsequent phases shall not be approved until building permits have been issued for forty (40) percent of lots in the preceding phase. This paragraph applies only when the preceding phase consists of forty (40) or more lots. c. City Attorney approval of the status of title /property ownership related to the final plat.
