MEMBERS PRESENT: Jana Lynn Britton and Jerry Allred OTHERS PRESENT: Alett Little, Don Bunn, Marty Powers, Rick Simmons, Al Harris and Sharon Langley CONCURRENT PLAT - JIM BLACKSTON SUBDIVISION JIM BLACKSTON - S OF WYMAN RD., E OF FOX HUNTER RD. The first item on the agenda was a request for approval of a concurrent plat for Jim Blackston Subdivision, presented by Marty Powers on behalf of Jim Blackston, for property located south of Wyman Road and east of Fox Hunter Road. The property is located outside the City Limits and contains 5.02 acres with 3 lots proposed. Mr. Bunn explained that Tract B was not of sufficient size for a septic tank. He stated the property had been sold approximately 3 years ago and the owners had not been aware of the need to have the lot split approved by the City. He noted the subdivision was the result of the sale. Mr. Bunn expressed his belief that the acreage could not be approved administratively and, therefore, Mr. Powers would have to go to the Board of Directors for a waiver. He explained it would be necessary to ask the Planning Commission to approve the subdivision subject to approval of the waiver by the Board of Directors. There was discussion regarding the need for an acre and half when a septic tank was to be installed. Mr. Bunn explained the septic system was already installed on the subject tract and did meet the requirements of the Health Department. He stated the Board had approved waivers of this nature in the past. In response to a question from Ms. Little, Mr. Powers explained the name would be the Blackston Subdivision. Ms. Little also noted the plat would need to be labeled as a concurrent plat. MOTION Ms. Britton moved to recommend the plat be approved by the Planning Commission subject to approval by the Board of Directors. Mr. Allred seconded the motion and suggested they also recommend the Board hear the request for a waiver at their next meeting.
