CASE REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF REVISED PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR RIVER BLUFFS P.U.D.; CASE OF LES MILLER AND JACK MILLER By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik Background: The proposed plat of River Bluffs P.U.D. received preliminary plat approval on December 19, 1989. The plat consisted of 60 acres proposed to be subdivided into 20 lots. The original sketch plan for RiveriBluffs consisted of an entrance at 153rd and two cul-de-sacs to service the lots. That sketch plan was refused by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the developer was directed to recbnfigure the plat to have through streets connecting with Juniper Ridge Drive to the west and Oneida Street to the north. The developer did so and the plat received preliminary approval. The developer has now approached the City for a revised preliminary plat. The streets have been reconfigured so that the through street with Oneida Street to the north is eliminated and Juniper Ridge Drive is: extended into the plat from the west as a cul-de-sac. In doing so, the number of lots also increased from 20 to 24.
