Mr. Schwanke gave a presentation regarding "Lakeview Estates" preliminary plat and answered questions from the Commission. The attached preliminary plat of Lakeview Estates is a 55.604 acre development located east of Ferguson Parkway and generally south of Rattan elementary. He noted the revised drawing addresses many of the comments that can be addressed at this time; however, the revised plat has generated additional comments as follow: 1.) Blocks A and B do not meet the additional depth requirement when double fronting. The developer has asked for a variance to this requirement since the allowed zoning on this tract would permit 100' lot depth throughout the development. The staff can support this variance 2.) The developer is requesting that one block receive a variance to the 800' max length. The block exceeds the maximum by approximately 350'. The staff is supportive of this variance since the overall size of the lots has significantly increased. 3.) Coordinate the right-of-way dedication on Ferguson Parkway with that of the Oak Hollow dedication at the northwest corner of this site. The total requirement for right-of-way is 120'. Oak Hollow did not dedicate enough right-of-way for the 120' configuration when the original Phase 2 was platted.
