SUBDIVISIONS:

LOT-SPLITS FOR WAIVER OF THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS:

L-19301 - Douglas Techanchuk                          (PD-8) (CD-2)

Location: 8140 South Yukon

 

Staff Recommendation:

An application has been filed to split the back 175’ off a 110’ X 305’ tract, and tie it to an existing tract to the south (Proposed Tract 2).  Both resulting tracts meet the RS-3 bulk and area requirements; however, Tract 2 will have more than three side-lot lines, requiring a waiver of the Subdivision Regulations.  Therefore, the applicant is seeking a waiver of Subdivision Regulations that each tract have no more than three side-lot lines.

 

The Technical Advisory Committee had no questions or concerns regarding this lot-split.  Staff believes this lot-split would not have an adverse effect on the surrounding properties and would therefore recommend APPROVAL of the waiver of Subdivision Regulations and of the lot-split.

 

Applicant was not present.

 

There were no interested parties wishing to speak.

 

TMAPC Action; 7 members present:

On MOTION of HORNER, TMAPC voted 7-0-0 (Bayles, Carnes, Harmon, Hill, Horner, Pace, Westervelt "aye"; no "nays"; none ”abstaining"; Jackson, Ledford, Midget, Selph "absent") to APPROVE the lot-split for waiver of the Subdivision Regulations for L-19301 as recommended by staff.

PRELIMINARY PLAT:

Elliott’s Subdivision – (PUD 652) (3193)     (PD-18) (CD-9)

Location: 5521 South Peoria

 

Staff Recommendation:

This plat consists of one lot in one block on 0.87 acres. This is a replat of part of lots 11 and 12, Block 6, J.E. Nichols Subdivision. It will be developed for retail uses under the PUD.

 

The following were discussed October 18, 2001 at the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting:

 

1.

Zoning:

 

Staff: This property was rezoned from OL (Office Light) to CS (Commercial Shopping Center) and had a companion PUD approved this summer. The approved uses include retail trade establishments under Use Unit 14 except pawnshops. Development conditions include: 50% maximum floor area ratio; 27 feet maximum building height; setbacks of 100’ from centerline of Peoria, 50’ from centerline of 55th Place, 25’ from east boundary, and 15’ from north boundary; 10% of net lot area as minimum landscaped area; other bulk and area requirements per CS zoning. Maximum of one access point to each abutting street along 55th Place; no access within 130’ of east boundary.

Recommend changing the PUD section of the covenants to read exactly as the minutes of the PUD hearing. Advised consulting with an attorney for assistance with all deed of dedication and restrictive covenant language.

2.

Streets/access:

 

Staff: Standard access width is 40’. The proposal is for 30 feet and 24 feet.

 

Public Works Traffic & Transportation: No concerns with access locations or proposed sizes; wants 30’ radius at southwest corner; existing right-of-way on 55th Place is 25 feet, not 24 feet as shown; numerous comments on content and format of submittal being substandard; suggests there may already be an “Elliotts” subdivision - applicant should investigate and change name if needed.

 

Applicant: No comments.

Other:
