To: Mayor Hicks & City Councilmembers From: Justin Fortney, Associate Planner Date: April 2, 2012 Item: Final Plat – 2012-05 – South Oaks 3rd Addition -Greg Jablonske City Council Action
Requested: The City Council is asked to review final plat approval for 16 single-family lots on South Oaks Drive and replatting of 12 single-family lots on Bohlken Drive. Background
Information: The 16 lots on South Oaks Drive were approved in 2003 as 11 townhome lots, but were never recoded with the county. The applicant would like to have them finalized again
for recording, but this time as single family lots. Zoning The proposed 16 lots on South Oaks drive are zoned R-3 PRD (medium–high density planned residential development) and are surrounded
by undeveloped land, single family homes, and townhomes. The Comprehensive Plan guides the area as medium density residential. The proposed 12 single-family lots on Bohlken Drive are
zoned R-2 (medium density residential) and are surrounded by undeveloped land and single family homes. The Comprehensive Plan guides the area as low density residential. Preliminary
Plat Preliminary Plat approval was granted as part of South Oaks of Hastings 2nd addition on August 4, 2003. The Final Plat is consistent with the approved Preliminary Plat. Grading,
Drainage, and Erosion Control Plan The applicant is in the process of revising the original grading plan to account for the reduction in lots along South Oaks Drive. Grading, Drainage,
and Erosion Control plan approval must be obtained by the Public Works Director as a condition of plat approval. Utilities The utility stubs are in place. Since the number of lots along
South Oaks Drive have been reduced there will be extra utilities. Reconfiguration of the line would require digging up the relatively new road and patching it, which would not be desirable.
Unneeded utility service City Council Memorandum
lines must be capped or tied into adjoining lines to the satisfaction of the City Engineer An agreement indicating property owner responsibility for unused/abandoned/interconnected utility
services lines, and agreeing to pay additional future expenses in the event of failure of the same unused/abandoned/interconnected utility service lines must be filed at the county with
the associated property. All recording expenses for these agreements shall be paid by the developer. Landscape Plan The landscape plan identified boulevard tree plantings every 50 lineal
feet along right-of-way for the townhome development, planted at 2.0 caliper inches. The current requirement for single family lots it one boulevard tree and one front yard tree per
lot. Financial Impact: The filing of the final plat should increase the properties tax value. Park dedication and sewer interceptor fees were paid when the previous final plats were
released. Advisory Commission Discussion: The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of of the final plat (7-0). No members of the public spoke at the meeting. Council Committee
