Property is zoned I-1. Green asked if notice to adjoining property (residential) owners was necessary and Jones replied that Anders owns subject property. /00 • • Subdivision Committee November 9, 1984 Page 2 Stockdell wished to clarify that the storing of hazardous substances will not be allowed, as per the Building Inspector's comments. Green referred to Clayton Powell's (Street Superintendent) comments requesting that the driveway be setback from Point West Street by 40 ft. from the end of the radius. Anders responded that he has corrected this on the plat. Discussion followed as to the correct place on a driveway to take the setback measurement from, with note made that Powell has requested this point to be at different places upon various occasions. It was decided to allow Powell to approve this setback. Green inquired if a waiver could be requested for this setback and Jones replied that it could. Anders stated that he would change the location of the driveway if Powell requested him to do so. Green questioned Powell's comment that the driveways could be widened to 44 ft. and Jones clarified that the maximum width is 40 ft. Stockdell inquired about sidewalk on Shiloh which was pointed out to her on the plat. Madison inquired about sidewalk on Point West Street and it was noted that they are required on the opposite side of the street from the development. Green raised the question of an additional 5 ft. of right-of-way that is required on Shiloh Drive because of an amendment which states that service roads be dedicated with 60 ft. of right-of-way (this subdivision's preliminary plat was approved with 50 ft. of right-of-way on Shiloh before that amendment was passed). Jones said that the Board Street Committee will be meeting at 7:00 P.M. Tuesday, November 13 in Room 111 in this building to address that issue. Green noted that this subdivision will be required to dedicate the additional footage if the requirement is not waived and Jones replied that, City Manager, Grimes, had said he thought the results of the meeting may exempt previously platted developments, but that Phase II of this development would be subject to the amendment. Green next addressed the Plat Review comments given by the utility companies. Anders said there were no problems with those requests. Green noted that Jones had requested the easements on the west property line be labeled as "easements" not "utility setbacks" and that they have not yet been changed. Anders said he will change the wording. Green asked Anders what he meant by his comment that he will construct the additional required parking spaces at the west property line and Anders replied that 5 additional spaces were needed and he has allowed for those by eliminating certain portions of grass area. lot • • • Subdivision Committee November 9, 1984 Page 3 Green inquired about the fence requirement and Anders responded that a privacy fence is planned between this development and the adjoining R-2 property. Stockdell noted that Jones had requested Anders check with the City Engineer regarding a manhole location and Anders pointed out that the building location has changed, eliminating that problem. Madison inquired as to why the large area in front of the trash dumpster has been indicated to be left covered only with gravel. She said she thought a certain amount of dust will be generated on this apron which adjoins residential property and Jones agreed that this area is required to be "durable and dustless" and added that double seal and coat (as suggested by Hanna) would be acceptable. Madison asked how Anders intended to protect the landscaping in this area and Anders said he would extend the curb around the landscaping and add railroad ties to the Point West Street area landscaping. MOTION Stockdell made a motion to recommend approval of this large scale development subject to 1. Plat Review comments; 2. Clayton Powell's approval of 40 ft. measurement at the northeast drive radii; 3. the right-of-way requirement being met on Shiloh or being waived by the City Board; 4. re -wording of the utility easement on the southwest corner; 5. protective measures being taken on the island beds in the green area; and, 6. double seal and coat on the western apron. Madison seconded this motion and the motion to approve passed 4-0-0. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 9:45 A.M. loa
