the street. The Subdivision Committee decided they would require improvements for
the Church's half of the street. (This would require the developer to widen the
existing street to 15 feet west of the centerline of the existing pavement, install
drainage, curb and gutter).
Bobbie Jones said the developer has already furnished the Planning Office with proof
that this is a lot of record. There was also a question of whether to require
screening and the Subdivision Committee decided they would require the necessary
screening (a view -obscuring fence or view -obscuring vegetation all along the north,
south, and west sides).
Keith Newhouse made a motion to approve the large scale development plan with the
following contingencies: 1) provide the 25 -foot right-of-way from the existing
centerline on Sang Avenue; 2) upgrade the street to city standards from the centerline
of the street all along their property; 3) provide the screening as required by
Ordinance 2380; and 4) waive the setback if the Planning Commission votes to do so.
