PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD REPORT, MARY KAY WYLAND Final Plat, Clearwater Creek - Ms. Wyland used the overhead projector to show the location of Clearwater Creek. She explained that the preliminary plat was approved by the City Council in February, 1995 for 157 Single Family (R-1) lots. The property is located south of Cedar Street and east of Otter Lake Road. The City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan indicates the property is planned for single family residential use. The Developer is requesting final plat approval for the first phase of the development. Phase one consists of 83 lots and two (2) outlots which will contain a well and well house and a lift station. The preliminary plat had indicated a total of 87 lots for this phase, however, a cul-de-sac was eliminated and some lot lines re -arranged to provide the 83 platted lots. At this time the second phase includes 71 lots from the original preliminary plat for a total in both phases of 154 lots plus the two (2) outlots. A development agreement was signed on June 6, 1995 and grading work is nearing completion on Phase I. Utility construction is underway and financial guarantees are in place. The City Attorney has reviewed the title work for the plat and has indicated that it is acceptable. When the preliminary plat was approved, the City Council added two (2) conditions to those outlined by staff. The first condition required disclosure by the developer and/or builders of the adjoining hobby farms in the area. The developer has included an item in his `Builder's Rules" to inform potential buyers, through the purchase agreement, of area hobby farms. A copy of this document is on file at City hall and all builders are required Page 8
