Next was the approval of the Large Scale Development for Hackney Brothers Body Company located on the Southeast corner of Pump Station Road and Armstrong Road; Hackney Brothers Body Company, Developers. J. E. McClelland was present to represent. Chairman Jacks acknowledged the fact that part of the property is located in the flood plain. Mr. McClelland said it is approximately 2/10 of an acre and is not near any buildings. Bobbie Jones mentioned that the temporary parking in Phase 1 is shown as unpaved. Mr. McClelland said the owners in North Carolina would like to go with the parking lot unpaved because it will only be a temporary parking area. There will be a storage building which will be built there in Phase 2. Chairman Jacks asked how long off Phase is and Mr. McClelland said he didn't know. Mr. McClelland asked if he could seal coat the parking lot (with a single seal). Chairman Jacks said they might recommend seal coating the lot but he feels they need to put a time limit on it. Bobbie Jones mentioned that he is also asking for a section where finished products will be stored in to be unpaved and the Ordinance is vague as to whether paving is required or not. Chairman Jacks said a dustless surface would not mean SB -2 but areas which are used purely for storage and not for traffic can use SB -2. Chairman Jacks said he feels they should allow the storage area to be a SB -2 coating and allow the temporary parking lot with a single seal coat. Keith Newhouse moved to accept the Large Scale Development of Hackney Brothers Body Company with (1) paving on the temporary parking area being a seal coat over a SB -2 type surface, and one year after the occupation date, the Subdivision Committee will check to see what they are doing on the temporary parking area, and (2) the storage area for finished products in the back will be a SB -2 type surface only. Bill Kisor seconded the motion. Mr. McClelland asked the Subdivision Committee what type of landscaping would be required. Bobbie Jones said they had accepted grass for Armstrong Tool Company. Bobbie Jones said she thought the intent of the Ordinance is that they want the total ground to be maintained in a neat appearance. Bill Kisor asked if they would still have some land- scaping and Mr. McClelland said "yes". Lange Scale Development HACKNEY BROS. BODY COMPANY SE connet ob Pump Station Rd. 6 Anme.thong 2 • Subdivision Committee Meeting April 25, 1977 -2- Keith Newhouse amended his motion to add that there be an indication on the plat of what type of landscaping is going to be put in. Bill Kisor seconded the amendment to the motion which was approved unanimously. The next item was the approval of the Final Plat for Brookside East located East of Old Wire Road and North of the extension for Township Road; Jerry D. Sweetser and Sharon J. Sweetser, Developers. Bobbie Jones gave Ernest Jacks a copy of a map showing the streets, existing and proposed, between Old Wire Road, Crossover Road and Mission Blvd. She said the map shows the streets in Azalea Terrace (Subdivision) as well as Brookside East; Azalea Terrace (Subdivision) has not been finaled yet. Ernest Jacks asked if the 100 -year flood plain has been shown. Neal Albright said he is working on it. Mr. Jacks said this needs to be on the final plat. Neal Albright said Azalea Terrace (street) would eventually be built to connect to Township. Mr. Jacks mentioned thatthe, would need to back up the cul-de-sac on Robin Lane. Bobbie Jones said they have already done this but they could back it up a little further and make larger lots. Chairman Jacks said they do need to put on the plat that there cannot be any driveway access to Township from the lots which border Township. Bobbie Jones said the Subdivision Committee would need to waive the sidewalks on the cul-de-sac on Azalea Terrace Neal Albright said this would be extended to Township later on when Township is put through. Bobbie Jones mentioned that there is one street light which exceeds the minimum spacing. It is 320 feet instead of 300 feet --this should also be varied. Bobbie Jones said there needs to be a note on the plat that there is to be no driveway access from the lots abutting Township Road. The 100 -year flood plain needs to be shown on the plat. Neal Albright asked if he could improve the ditch in a manner which would carry the water must they still show the 100 -year flood plain. Chairman Jacks said he would need to meet Mr. Lieberenz's requirements for the flood plain. Bobbie Jones said the two cul-de-sacs have the same name as the streets that they run off of. Bobbie Jones said she feels this may be confusing. She said it would be better to give them different names. Chairman Jacks said they may want to name them Jonquil Court and Robin Court. Bobbie Jones said there will be several areas where dimensions are not shown. All of the lots need to be fully dimensioned. A lot of the dimensions are not to scale Some dimensions are as much as 20 feet off scale, for instance Lot 93. Neal Albright.said.they will check this. Bobbie Jones said the Planning Office has marked the areas where the dimensions are more than 5 feet off and will give Mr. Albright a copy of the plat. Bobbie Jones said they need to indicate a barricade at the west end of Country Way. Two easements need to be dimensioned and identified (between Lots 18 and 19 and between Lots 11 and 12). She said they need to show the existing 30 foot dedication in Jerry D. Sweetser's Subdivision as a dedication for future streets. Bill Kisor made a motion to approve the final plat of Brookside East with the contingencies that (1) he show the flood plain or get a waiver from Harold Lieberenz (2) there be a note indicating that no lot abutting the future extension of Township Road have driveway access to Township Road; (3) waive the extension of sidewalks around Azalea Terrace cul-de-sac; (4) waive spacing for one street light to 320 feet; (5) all cul-de-sacs be named as indicated (Robin Court and Jonquil Court) and (6) take care of the engineering details which Bobbie Jones has mentioned. Keith Newhouse seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. BROOKSIDE EAST FLnat Plat lucky D.

CARLON CENTER P4ce-UmLnahy Plat Between ViLtct B.Zvd. 5 Co/Lege Avenue • • • Subdivision Committee Meeting April 25, 1977 -3- Chairman Ernest Jacks said it would be desirable to prevent access from College Avenue on Lot 1, Block 2 and Lot 1, Block 1, which is already shown on the plat. Mr. Jacks asked Rick Cowdreyif the easements are taken care of and Rick Cowdry said they are. Keith Newhouse asked about constructing a median on Drake Road where it intersects with College Avenue and Rick Cowdreysaid Mr. Bassett asked to put a median there and Clayton Powell said it would be o.k. Bobbie Jones said (1) there is a lot line at the northwest corner which is not dimensioned, (2) they need to submit the protective covenants; (3) show angles and bearings on the curves on the final plat. Chairman Jacks asked Bobbie Jones if they could approve this with no access from Lot 1, Block 1, and Lot 1, Block 2. She said "yes". Chairman Jacks said the Subdivision Committee does strongly recommend a median on Drake Road. Bobbie Jones mentioned that Lot 2, Block 2 and Lot 5, Block 1 are behind other lots and have only 40 feet of actual frontage each. They would have private property going back to those two lots. Ernest Jacks asked if these could be treated as tandem lots. Bobbie Jones said "tandem" lots are limited to single-family residences; however there is no minimum lot frontage for commercial, but they need to be aware of these lots. Keith Newhouse made a motion to approve the preliminary plat of Carlon Center with (1) the lot line at the northwest corner being dimensioned; (2) protective covenants being furnished, and (3) show the angles and bearings on the curves. The Subdivision Committee also strongly recommends that they put in a median at the intersection of Drake Road and Highway 71. Bill Kisor seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. The last item for discussion was the approval of the HUNTINGTON PLACE preliminary plat for Huntington Place located Northeast Pkeiimi.nah.y Hat of:Joe Fred Starr Road, South of Highway 45 East; NE o4 Joe Fhed S.tahh Joe Lynn Henley and Judy Henley, Robert L. Hutson and Road, S a{ Hwy 45 Ea6.t Andre Hutson, Developers. Neal Albright and Mr. and Mrs. Robert L. Hutson were present to represent. Chairman Jacks asked if all the easements are there and Bobbie Jones said there is one on the west side of Lots 8 and 9 which should be widened to 25 feet. Bobbie Jones said they have changed their legal description and needW change the total acreage to 34.06 acres to agree with the legal description. Chairman Jacks said the easement for SWEPCO along the North lots is 100 feet, all on Mr. Hutson's property. Neal Albright said this 100 feet would be a setback line. Bobbie Jones said they have received the signatures of the adjoining property owners and said they may use pins instead of concrete monuments on each side of Huntington Drive unless the County requires monuments. Chairman Jacks said they need to indicate the 30 feet right-of-way from the centerline of Joe Fred Starr Road to the west. Bobbie Jones said the additional dedication may need to be 8 feet instead of the 5 feet they are showing. Sequoyah Woods dedicated 8 feet and it should be the same on both sides of the road. They also need to show the radius on the street intersection. Mrs. Nichol, an adjacent property owner, was concerned about septic tanks polluting her pond and Mr. Hutson said they would go with the State Board of Health's recommendations on this. He said this is one reason he has made the lots so large Bill Kisor said this conforms to the City's recommendations with the exception that the right-of-way be shown along Joe Fred Starr Road to the west and the one easement be made wider, also the street radius at the intersection of Joe Fred Starr Road and Huntington Road be dimensioned; He moved to recommend approval on that basis and with those conditions. Keith Newhouse seconded the motion, which was approved unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 5:05 P. M. ao
