On December 10, 2002 the City received an application from Mr. Keefe requesting minor <br />subdivision approval. In a letter, dated December 18, 2002, Mr. Keefe was informed that <br />his application was substantially incomplete and listed information that was necessary to <br />begin review of the request. Mr. Keefe submitted additional information on January 6, <br />2003. <br />On January 8, 2003, at the regular Planning and Zoning Board meeting, Mr. Keefe's <br />minor subdivision request was added to the board's agenda for discussion. The board <br />requested that staff work with the applicant to resolve issues and, if possible place the <br />item on the January 22, 2003 meeting agenda. Staff met with Mr. Keefe and his surveyor <br />on January 16, 2003 to discuss issues relating the proposal. <br />The minor subdivision request and associated variances were brought to the Planning and <br />Zoning Board on January 22, 2003. Staff's recommendation was to deny the Minor <br />Subdivision and Variance requests. The Planning and Zoning Board tabled the request <br />and recommended that the applicant proceed with a rezoning to Planned Development <br />Overlay (PDO) to facilitate the development. <br />A request for the rezoning to Planned Development Overlay District and Preliminary Plat <br />approval was brought to the Planning and Zoning Board on February 12, 2003.
