HISTORY:
• October 16, 2018: City Council approved a zoning request and concept plan (Case Number Z181001/CP181001), creating PD-383, a planned development district for general retail and multi-family development.
PLAT FEATURES:
The plat depicts the necessary utility easements and meets density and dimensional requirements in PD-383 and the Unified Development Code (UDC).
Lot 1 will be accessible from Forum Drive. Lot 2 will be directly accessible from the northbound SH 161 frontage road and accessible from Forum Drive using a drive on Lot 1.
An existing drive located on Lot 2 provides access to the Ikea sign. The applicant will need to address the relocation of this drive and access easement prior to final platting Lot 2.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Development Review Committee (DRC) recommends approval.
