Mr. Moore explained that they are proposing to widen the street back to the last service drive, curb & gutter that part and install the gutter and curb and leave the street the same width on the other part of it. Mr. Lewis would like to issue the City a Bill of Assurance that if, in some future time, they decide not to have a dead-end street, he would do his part on the widening of the street. Dow stated that this sounds reasonable to her because the front part is where the major part of the traffic is going to be occurring. The Bill of Assurance will be there if there ever is a problem.

Mr. Powers stated that the power company is going tor.: relocate their existing power poles in order to coordinate with their plans; they are aware of this.

He explained that they will have a two-hour fire wall between the service area and the offices which will meet the City code.

Property located north of Highway 16 West and west of Shiloh Drive and south of Dorothy Jeanne Street. Property contains 3.2 acres and is zoned C-2, Thoroughfare Commercial with 136 proposed guest rooms. Dow asked if he had proper notification. Wimberly stated that he had did notification in the paper and he submitted a copy to the Planning Secretary. Dow asked if this was the property that was rezoned within the last year. Mr. Wimberly answered, no, it was rezoned way back. The south 4 acres got rezoned but what they don't know is if it was before or after the state took additional right-of-way. Dow advised that in discussion of rezonings in this area, the point has been made that they are doing so heavily the rezoning on Highway 62, this is a good interchange for something. Dow noted that Mickey Jackson stated at Plat Review that, a_sprinkler system is required. Wimberly stated that is in the plan. Wimberly stated that the only issue to be resolved is the widening of the street. He noted that it is state right-of-way and the state bought that right-of-way and built the frontage road. He advised that they haven't asked the state about widening it because if he widens it on his side, it will never be widened by anyone else on the other side. Dow asked how it could be resolved. She referred to what Don Bunn had stated in the Plat Review about it effectively being a City street. Dow asked the Planning Secretary if she could do some research about this and let them know by Monday night at the Planning Commission meeting. Wimberly stated that they planned to go ahead and build the entrances to accommodate it. He noted that he didn't see any advantage to going ahead and curb & guttering it right now because they have a good 23' paved surface and there is no parking on the street. There is plenty of right-of-way. Dow stated that Perry Franklin, Traffic Superintendent, had expressed some concern about traffic on the corner where it ties into Highway 16. She stated that she thought this was a reasonable place to put something like this. • MOTION • • • Subdivision Committee September 21, 1988 Page 4 Robertson moved to approve this Large Scale Development Plan as submitted subject to Plat Review comments and with no recommendation on the widening of the controversial City or State street with a request that it be researched before the Planning Commission meeting, seconded Dow.
