16 COUNCIL MEETING MAY 8, 1995 PLANNING AND ZONING REPORT, MARY RAY WYLAND Consideration of Preliminary Plat for Behm's Century Farms - Ms. Wyland used the overhead project and explained that the City Council reviewed this request at the April 24, 1995 City Council meeting. The request involves a 105 single family lot subdivision, a rezone from Rural to Single - Family (R -1) for a portion of the Lino Air Park lots that are intended to be included in this subdivision, and a Planned Development Overly (PDO) for the Lino Air Park lots. At the Council meeting there were several questions raised concerning the subdivision and PDO for the Lino Air Park lots. Since the meeting, staff has reviewed the Council concerns with the developer and the following paragraphs outline the resolution to the concerns. Concerning the temporary cul -de -sac at the end of the 1st addition, the developer has decided to increase the 1st addition by two (2) lots which will allow a temporary cul -de -sac to be constructed at an intersection. This arrangement meets the requirements outlined in the staff report of April 7, 1995 and concurs with the Planning and Zoning Board recommendation. The developer has discussed two (2) options pertaining to the "abut" lot detailed in the April 7, 1995 planning report. Option No. 1 would involve the placement of restrictive covenants on the two (2) corner lots which would insure their orientation to the north, rather than the east or west, thus eliminating the "abut" lot problem of back yards abutting side yards. Option No. 2 would eliminate the "abut" lot completely, however, this option is less desirable from the developers standpoint. The third concern expressed by the City Council involved the development of protective covenants on the Lino Air Park lots. Staff has completed a detailed review of the proposed covenants with the developer. A copy of the covenants were included with the City Council packets for their review. It is recommended that the covenants be made a part of the subdivision approval. Prior to the final plat, staff will insure that the covenants are recorded with the Lino Air Park lots and made a permanent part of the development agreement. Ms. Wyland recommended that the City Council approve the preliminary plat as shown on the overhead projector with conditions outlined in the April 7, 1995 planning report which include the revised restrictive covenants, a revised plat indicating a north orientation with deed restrictions on the lots east and west of the "abut" lot, and the construction of a temporary cul -de -sac at the north /west terminus of the first addition.
