The minutes of the August 9, 1976 Subdivision Committee MINUTES meetingrwere approved as mailed. Chairman Jacks opened discussion on the large scale development plan for "Hilltop Apartments," to be loca- ted at 1341 North Gregg Avenue (North of Central Baptist Church). HILLTOP APARTMENTS 1341 North Gregg Avenue Large Scale Development Attorney Marshall Carlisle was present to represent. Chairman Jacks said that the only comment he sees from the Plat Review minutes has to do with right-of-way on Gregg Avenue. Mr. Carlisle said that Surveyor, Don Kemp and Street Superintendent Clayton Powell had gone over the existing location of the street and existing right-of- way and between them had worked out amount of right-of-way needed. They have agreed to give strip of 20 ft. on one end and 21 ft. on the other end to come up with approximately 40 ft. from the centerline of Gregg for the right-of-way. Bobbie Jones said that she talked to Harold Lieberenz and the stairway cannot be in the front setback area. Mr. Carlisle said that Wally Brt said that he had to have room to turn the sanitation trucks around. He said that it might be easier to move the trash bin, since some parking spaces will be eliminated anyway. Mr. Carlisle said that he has already talked with Paul Mattke about water and sewer, and sewer grade is not as critical as they had thought. Mr. Kisor moved that the large scale development plan of "Hilltop Apartments" be approved, contingent on: (1) right-of-way on Gregg Avenue being dedicated; (2) parking lot being paved; and (3) trash location to be satisfactory for Wally Brt; (4) stairway not be in front yard setback. Mr. Newhouse seconded the motion, which was approved unanimously by a vote of S-0. Chairman Jacks opened discussion on the last item on the Agenda, the request for a waiver of subdivision requirements, submitted by West Ark Real Estate & Devel- opment Company for property on the West side No one was present to represent this request. WEST ARK REAL ESTATE $ DEVELOPMENT CO. West side of Highway 71 By -Pass Waiver of Subdivision Requirements of Highway 71 By -Pass (Zoned C-2). Subdivision Committee -2- August 23, 1976 Bobbie Jones said that they did dedicate additional right-of-way for the existing road on the East side of the property when the Planning Office approved the 2nd and 3rd lot split. Chairman Jacks said that a note has been submitted by City Manager Donald Grimes saying that it is time for a street to be built. Chairman Jacks wanted to know if West Ark Real Estate F, Development Company ought to build the. street ("Moore Lane"). Mr. Donald Grimes said that this is developing into a subdivision and that he has been getting a lot of pressure about the condition of the road and he doesn't think it is fair to have this take place with no participation in the improvement of the roadways. He suggested a contract saying that they would participate in a street improvement district or at least that they would not oppose a street improvement district and stating that they recognize that they have an obligation to participate in a street improvement district when the time comes. Mr. Kisor moved that this fourth waiver of subdivision requirements for West Ark Real Estate & Development Company be approved, contingent on them entering into a contract saying that they will not oppose a street improvement district, if and when the time arises, and that this be recommended to the Planning Commission on that basis. Mr. Newhouse seconded the motion, which was approved unanimously by a vote of 5-0. There was no further business to be discussed. OTHER BUSINESS The meeting was adjourned at 4:50 P. M. • •
