The plat proposes to extend 147th Lane west at Rhinestone St NW from the remainder of the Town Center Gardens plat. Olivine and Peridot Streets are proposed to be extended north to serve the northeast comer of the plat; both are proposed to connect to 149th Avenue NW. 148th Avenue is being constructed to the western property line in the northern part of the plat; this complies with City Code requirements. A temporary cul-de-sac is shown at the end of 148th Avenue. Building on Lot 10, Block 3 and Lot 26, Block 4 will not be permitted until the street is extended to make room for the temporary cul-de-sac. Type III barricades must be installed along with the temporary cul-de- sacs. The approved Master Plan for the Town Center shows Town Center Drive being extended between the Subject Property and the Town Center property to the west. City plans show Town Center Drive to connect to Variolite Street at Alpine Drive, generally through the Subject Property, south Of Alpine Drive.
