VII. STAFF ANALYSIS
The applicant requests approval to modify the landscape plan approved with the Olivetree at
Spurwing Subdivision to remove the pathway connection (for golf carts) to the golf course planned
between Lots 7 and 9, Block 1 and the requirement for bollard lighting along the pedestrian pathway.
Removal of the pathway connection is due to a change in ownership of the golf course; the new
owners feel it would be a liability to allow a direct pedestrian access to the golf course from the
residential neighborhood (see applicant's narrative for more information).
Removal of the bollard lighting requirement is due to a change in City Code that no longer requires
pathway lighting to be provided; and the applicant feels streetlights within the development provide
adequate illumination of the pathway.
The applicant proposes to add an archway/entryway feature and water fountain as alternative
amenities within the development (see Exhibit A.2).
Staff recommends approval of the proposed MFP per the landscape plan in Exhibit A.2.
