Elizabeth,
The following is my response to your comments:
nd
Condition #A.3 requires a final plat to be submitted, approved and a plat recorded for the 2 phase of this subdivision in
order to create a developable parcel prior to submittal of a CZC & DR application for the proposed development. The
Applicant requests approval to submit the CZC/DR applications after the final plat for this phase has been approved by
st
Council but before it’s been recorded. The findings for the 1 DA amendment & preliminary plat require the property to be
subdivided (i.e. final plat recorded) prior to submittal of any CZC/DR applications for the site. Therefore, this request
cannot be granted.
Condition #B.2.9 requires street signs to be in place, sanitary sewer & water system to be approved and activated, road
base approved by ACHD & the final plat recorded prior to applying for building permits. The Applicant requests this
condition is amended so that they can apply for building permits after the final plat is approved but not yet recorded.
Again, the final plat is required to be recorded first in order to create a parcel that’s eligible for development. This request
cannot be granted.
Condition #A.2 requires a revised common open space exhibit to be submitted prior to the Council hearing that complies
with the minimum standards – the Applicant proposes to request ALT from these standards. An alternative compliance
application needs to be submitted to the Planning Division.
Please note that in the staff report to the Council, which will include the Commission recommendation from tonight’s
hearing, there will be a recommendation that the amended DA include the following amendment to provision #5.1e:
“The Property shall be subdivided (preliminary plat approved) and this Agreement recorded prior to submittal of any
Certificate of Zoning Compliance and Design Review applications for the overall site.”
