Re: Southern Springs Subdivision #2
We have reviewed the Staff Report for the Southern Springs Subdivision #2 (SS#2) and have the
following comments:
I. In the fourth paragraph under "Application Summary and Location" it is stated that,
"The Final Plat is proposing private streets...." It has never been our intention to
have private streets as a part of SS#2. Southern Springs Subdivision #1 has private
streets because the L-O zone requires a minimum of 50 feet of road frontage for those
lots. The CG zone which SS#2 is in does not require road frontage. The final plat
mistakenly labeled the main access drive easements throughout the site as private
road easements. These designations and the names of the roads will be removed
from the plat prior to signature. Therefore it will not be necessary for the City
Council to make a decision of approval or denial for private streets. The following
items within the Site Specific Comments I Final Plat should be changed as follows:
a. Item 5 illD Strike the note and replace with the following: Add a note that
states that all lots within this subdivision and Southern Springs Sub. No.1
are subject to a vehicular cross-access agreement recorded as Instrument
No.
b. Item 5 @.) Strike the note and replace with the following: Add a note
addressing the maintenance of the commercial drive aisles within the
development as detailed within the Covenants Conditions and Restrictions
Instrument No._.
c. Add this item to the Specific Comments I Final Plat: Change the words
"private road" to "commercial drive aisle" in Note 3. Remove note 16
completely which refers to a private road easement.
2. In the fifth paragraph under "Application Summary and Location" two additional lots
are mentioned. These two lots, Lot 12 and 13, Block 1 were not intended to be
separate lots. They are actually intended to be parts of Lot 2 and 3 of Block 1. Prior
to signature, the lot lines between Lot 2 and 13 and between Lot 3 and 12 will
removed leaving only 11 total lots. The following items within the Site Specific
Comments I Final Plat should be changed as follows:
a. Item 5 (12.) Strike the note completely as there will not be a Lot 12 or Lot
13.
b. Item 13 can be eliminated from the staff report because it will not apply.

3. Site Specific Item 15 appears to be a misprint. The conditions #7 and #8 of PP-O3-
036 are from Southern Springs Subdivision #1 referring to the access to Overland
Road and do not apply to Southern Springs Subdivision #2.
With the exception of the items addressed ahove we will comply with all other conditions of the
Staff Report.
