COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
N/A
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
recommendation
APPROVE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS:
Planning:
1. Pursuant to Section 2-3. 8 (6) of the Subdivision Ordinance, plats located in areas of special flood hazard where a map revision is proposed must illustrate both existing and proposed floodplain boundaries. Revise the plat drawing accordingly. In addition, include the following plat note: “Existing floodplain lines will be utilized for the purpose of issuing building permits until a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) is granted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).” Coordinate with the One-Stop Shop (OSS) for floodplain compliance.
2. Pursuant to Section 2-3.1 (a) (iv) of the Subdivision Ordinance, the site plan must be submitted separately. Therefore, please remove the site plan layer from the plat drawing.
3. Pursuant to Section 2-3.2(b)(1)(xii) of the Subdivision Ordinance, the overall boundaries of the plat must be clearly delineated using heavy lines. Revise the plat to ensure the proposed subdivided area is easily distinguishable from surrounding features and adjacent phases, as the current linework does not adequately define the plat boundary.
4. Revise the plat to ensure a logical and sequential numbering of lots within the phase. The current numbering begins with Lot 3, which may cause confusion. Lots should be numbered consecutively and assigned to new block numbers, where there is a clear break in layout or continuity, to maintain consistency within the phase.
5. Coordinate with the Traffic Department for driveway placements/shared access.
6. Access to FM 1472 is subject to the review and approval by the Texas Department of Transportation (TX-DOT).
7. Identify all easements.
8. All improvements as per the Subdivision Ordinance.
