Alternative 1: Motion to approve the Preliminary Plat contingent upon compliance with the Staff Review Letter, which does specifically address the cul-de-sac and easement concerns/issues. Generally speaking, Staff is supportive of the Preliminary Plat, assuming the drainage concern can be sufficiently addressed and the cul-de-sac design is solved for. Staff is supportive of this approach. Alternative 2: Motion to table action on the Preliminary Plat until the Applicant fully addresses the drainage easement concerns and submits a revised plan set that includes dedicated right-of-way for the cul-de-sac and what, if any, implications that has on the size and/or number of lots. While the Applicant is anxious to finalize the entitlement process to complete a pending land transaction, there are some significant, unresolved concerns with the plat design that, if not solved for, would result in nonconformities. Staff would not object to delaying action until the Applicant and their design team better addresses these items that were identified during the Sketch Plan review but also notes that they are identified within the Staff Review Letter. Alternative 3: Deny Approval the Preliminary Plat. While there are some significant issues yet to be addressed, Staff believes that they can be resolved (whether the Applicant supports the necessary revisions or not is unknown). Staff would not support this option at this time Funding Source: All costs associated with processing the Application are the responsibility of the Applicant. There are no City funds proposed to be utilized for the construction of this project at this point. Recommendation: As long as the plans can be revised in accordance with the Staff Review Letter, including solving for the drainage (and easement vacation) concern and the cul-de-sac design, Staff would recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat. If the revisions result in a change in lot configuration, number of lots, and/or deficiencies in lot size, the revised Preliminary Plat could be routed back through the Planning Commission for consideration. Note: a variance for cul-de-sac size will heard at the August Planning Commission meeting. Both cul-de-sac size and stormwater management appear to have the potential to result in a net loss of a buildable lot(s). It may be reasonable to reduce the net buildable lots by one to better accommodate stormwater needs and culd-de-sac size (if the variance is not supported by Planning Commission). Action: Motion to approve Resolution #17-07-162 contingent upon compliance with the Staff Review Letter and upon the Applicant successfully obtaining a variance to cul-de-sac size.
