Preliminary Plat <br />Lots: The lots will be approximately 470 feet in depth, a minimum of 76.5 feet in width, <br />and a minimum of 36,141 square feet in area. All of these exceed the minimum standards <br />of the zoning ordinance as the lot width may be reduced to 75 feet in width for any <br />property 1.5 acres in size or larger that existed prior to February 22, 1988. <br />Setbacks: The submitted plans depict a 13 foot setback to the west and east for the <br />existing dwelling, and all required setbacks will be enforced on both lots in the future. <br />Streets: No additional roads are being proposed and the full right of way is in <br />place for Lois Lane. The existing road system can accommodate the traffic generated by <br />the new homes. <br />Park Dedication: The current subdivision ordinance includes park dedication in the <br />amount of $2075 per residential unit, less any land dedication. There is no land <br />dedication needed, as Highland Meadows Park is nearby. <br />Utilities: Sanitary sewer and water is already in place in Lois Lane presently. Both <br />proposed lots, including the existing home, must connect to utilities. Onsite septic <br />systems must be abandoned according to law. In addition, existing wells likely will have <br />to be capped because of proximity to new sanitary sewer lines. These and other issues <br />discussed in the City Engineer review memo must be addressed to his satisfaction. <br />Grading: The grading plan has been reviewed by the City Engineer and his <br />comments will need to be addressed to his satisfaction prior to the site being developed. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff is recommending approval of Ordinance No. 05 -07, approving the rezoning of the <br />property from R (Rural) to R -1 (Single Family Residential) and Resolution No. 07 -XX, <br />approving the Preliminary Plat and MUSA allocation for Cox Estates. <br />This review is based on the following plans and information: <br />City Engineer Comments dated April 3, 2007 <br />Boundary/Topographic Survey, submitted February 07, 2007 <br />Preliminary Grading Drainage and Erosion Control Plan submitted February 07, 2007 <br />Preliminary Plat submitted February 07, 2007 <br />Final Plat submitted March 23, 2007 <br />
