GLEN OAKS SUBDIVISION — PRELIMINARY PLAT
EAST OF. OLD MISSOURI & SOUTH OF SWEETBRIAR — JAMES LINDSEY
The first item of consideration today was the preliminary plat of
Glen Oaks Subdivision submitted by James Lindsey and located East
of Old Missouri Road and South of Sweetbriar.
Carlisle requested the preliminary plat be taken back to Plat Review
since the plat had been changed it would effect the utility companies.
Carnahan stated he had met with the utility eompanys and the easements
on the new plat are acceptable by them. Madison asked if the sewer
problem had been worked out with Don Bunn and Lindsey stated no.
Madison stated she felt the plat had changed significantly from what
the Plat Review Comments reflected and since the layout of the streets,
drainage and water configuration had changed she would feel better
if this Subdivision went back to Plat Review. Lindsey asked when
the next Plat Review would be and Carlisle stated Thursday the 31st
of July.
Dow stated it was confusing to her because at the time of Plat Review
the streets were not named and the minutes would refer to directions
which were difficult to locate at the site.
Lindsey asked Carlisle what the restrictions were on street names,
and Carlisle stated there is already a Glen and many Oaks for street
names. Carlisle stated the Post Office, Fire Department and Police
Department objected because they receive most of the emergency calls
and it could be confusing.
Madison stated when this goes back to Plat Review if they could do
the western piece of Errol Street differently, it bothered her for
it to just stop and she understood why they would not want it to be
there presentation entrance but it still needs to be finished at the
end.

Lindsey stated he had a problem with how people would perceive that
entrance and also he would be willing to pay half the cost for construction
of a privacy fence along Errol and the nursing home. Lindsey stated
the western piece of Errol street would not be a good entrance into
that subdivision. Madison stated it would be a waste of a good city
street and they would use it for four lots, she felt it needs to be
a cul -de -sae.
Carlisle asked if they were going to access lots 44, 45, 46 and 47
by Errol Street and Lindsey answered yes.
Jacks felt if they were going to screen the Western piece of Errol
street from the nursing home there would be no problem in making a
turn around or tying Errol through to Glen Oaks Drive. Lindsey felt
the traffic in that area would be for all the lots adjoining and would
be negative as he saw it.
Jacks stated he would like to see a.eoneept plat of the entire acreage
or in phases of what Lindsey has planned for the 56 additional acres.
Carnahan asked for an opinion from the Committee if they agreed with
powells comments as to doing away with the main entrance on Glen Oaks
and Madison stated until she went out there she could not give one.
Jacks stated they would go back to Plat Review on July 31, 1986 and
Subdivision on August 7, 1986.
SEQDOYAH PLACE — PRELIMINARY PLAT
HIGHWAY 45 EAST AND WHIPPOORWILL — JAMES LINDSEY
The second item of consideration was the preliminary plat of Sequoyah
Place submitted by James Lindsey and located at Highway 45 East and
Whippoorwill.
Madison stated access for lots 1, 3 & 4 would come off of Whippoorwill
and lot 2 would access off highway 45. Madison asked Lindsey if he
received permission to Bross the utility easement to access lots 3
& 4 and Lindsey stated in the abstract and covenants it made no restriction
on a driveway going across the utility easement and Madison asked
who owned the property where the utility easement existed and Carlisle
stated the developer owns the property and the utility company has
the right to use it. Madison then stated if they are going to access
lots 3 and 4 from Whippoorwill Court they have to have permission
from the property owner or the property owners
association.
Madison asked if the adjoining property owners had been notified and
Lindsey stated no. Carlisle stated all adjoining property must be

stated there may be a market for a duplex on two of the lots and Madison
said if it becomes residential then a green space fee is in order.

Department about accessing off highway 45 and Carnahan stated the
highway department said there would be no problem.
