He recommended Mr. Fugitt contacted Mr. Jackson regarding placement of three fire hydrants. He explained Mr. Fugitt would have to run an 8 -inch extension in order to serve the hydrants. Mr. Bunn explained the city would need a grading plan. Mr. Fugitt stated he had received notification of the new ordinance just a few days before completing the plot plan. He explained he had immediately requested a topography on the property but had not received it yet. He stated as soon as the topography was completed he would complete the application and submit the plan. Mr. Bunn stated the zoning, ownership and existing trees would also have to be shown on the plat. He explained there was a possibility the city would ask for additional dedication along Zion Road. He stated this area was on the Master Sidewalk Plan so they would need sidewalks along Zion Road. He further stated they would need a drainage plan. Mr. Fugitt stated there was currently a large drainage ditch along the east property line. He explained the majority of drainage would go into the ditch. The utility representatives expressed concern regarding an easement • el • Plat Review August 8, 1991 Page 3 in the drainage area. Ms. Bryant explained that on all plats they needed to indicate the name of the owner, builder and developer together with the zoning classification. She further stated the plat needed contour lines, the width of the curb cuts, and the other streets in the area to be shown. In response to a question from Ms. Bryant regarding calculation of the parking spaces, Mr. Fugitt explained there were 20 bedrooms per unit and he had figured 2 spaces for a two bedroom unit and one and one-half spaces for a 1 bedroom unit or 22 spaces per unit. Ms. Bryant asked Mr. Fugitt to show the number of units, broken down by number of bedrooms. Mr. Fugitt explained that per unit there were eight two-bedroom units and 4 one -bedroom units with a total of 14 units. Ms. Langley stated the Parks Department had contacted her but they had believed there were only 140 dwelling units instead of 168. She explained that would make their parks fee calculations incorrect. Mr. Bunn stated Mr. Fugitt would also need to show which easements were existing and which were proposed. He further stated the easements would need to be dedicated by separate instrument. The meeting was adjourned at 10:40 a.m.
