Colter. This item previously had been tabled at the March 15 regular meeting for the purpose of correcting a site plan. At that time Mr. Baddaker, Director of Public Works, had advised that the request was for the purpose of building a service station which would sell minimal grocery items as well as beer for off-site consumption. The present zoning of "C-2" would be changed to "S -P" for this purpose. All notifications had been met as specified by law. Chairman Spencer then called for discussion relative to the newly submitted site plan. Member Powers asked if it now meets the 200 foot driveway requirements. Mr. Richardson advised that at the March 15 meting, the Commission and City Staff had advised that the drive should be as far away as possible from the intersection of William D. Tate Avenue and State Highway 114, and this had been accomplished with the revised site plan. In answer to Member Glynn's question, Mr. Eberhart advised that the access road would intersect State Highway 114. Member Norman addressed the noted planned 70 foot sign, and the City Planner concurred that the ordinance requires a 50 foot sign. There being no further discussion, Member Powers made a motion to recommend that the City Council approve the request as submitted with the stipulation that there be a 50 foot sign provision. The motion was duly seconded by Member Norman and prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Joyce, Cook, Joyce, Glynn, Powers and Norman Nays: None Absent: Hawkins The next item for the Commission to consider for the purpose of making a reconrendation to the City Council was the Replat of the Waldrop Heights Addition. As indicated on the plat of the division, the replat includes the northeast quadrant of William D. Tate Avenue and State Highway 114 and includes all of the original Waldrop Heights Addition. Since it is presently under one ownership, no public hearing is necessary. Mr. Eberhart advised that the zoning is "I-1", that water and sewer utilities are available and no right-of-way dedication is necessary. The replat incorporates the entire addition into one lot and meets all of the zoning ordinance subdivision requirements. Mr. Eberhart advised that the City Staff recommends approval of the replat as submitted. There being no further discussion, Harlen Joyce made a motion to reconmend that the City Council approve the replat as submitted, and the motion was duly seconded by Tom Powers. It prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Spencer, Cook, Joyce, Glynn, Powers and Norman Nays: None Absent: Hawkins P&Z Minutes 3-29-83 Page 3 IS-00AM The next item for consideration by the Commission was the Final Plat of Autumn Hills for the purpose of making a recommendation to the City Council. It was noted that this addition is located east of the Brookside Addition and north of the Manor Oaks Addition. The plat incorporates all comments that were made on the preliminary phase. However, Lots 11 and 12 are short 7.50 feet from meeting minimum lot size requirements. There should be no foreseeable problems with provision of utilities and no necessary additional provision of street right-of-way. Mr. Eberhart advised that engineers had informed him that there had been a computer error on the site plan, therefore, the correction should be made on the lot sizes before recommending the plat be approved. Considering this, Ron Cook made the motion to table any recommendation on the plat stipulating that the revised site plan shows Lots 11 and 12 meting minimum square footage requirements. The motion was duly seconded by Ann Glynn and prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Spencer, Cook, Joyce, Glynn, Powers and Norman Nays: None Absent: Hawkins The next item for consideration by the Commission was the minutes of the meeting of March 15. Member Norman requested that one correction be made, that being to indicate the absence of Meirber Harlen Joyce under the heading"Final Plat of the Lake Forrest Addition (Later named Forrest Lake)". The secretary agreed to make the correction, after which Gerald Norman made a motion to approve them as written. The motion was duly seconded by Tom Powers and prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Spencer, Cook, Glynn, Powers and Norman Nays: None Abstain: Joyce Absent: Hawkins FA -ONNIFI-falkyl UT —IN&H There being no further business to come before the Commission, Tom Powers made a motion to adjourn the meeting at approximately 8:30 P.M.
