Grant Parkway and south of SE Tallgrass Lane. The proposed final plat includes a total of 10 lots for single family residential development. Access to the development is provided via SE Willowbrook Drive. FISCAL IMPACT INCLUDING COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS: COMMISSION/BOARD/COMMITTEE COMMENT: The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the request at their meeting on November 13, 2018 and recommended approval: Approval of a Final Plat for Kettlestone Ridge Plat 3 Senior Planner Andy Kass, introduced the request of a Final Plat for single family development as submitted by the applicant, Jerry’s Homes. The Subject property is approximately 3.71 acres in area, located north of Ashworth Road and east of L.A. Grant par kway. This plat is the third phase of the Kettlestone Ridge development and contains a total of 10 lots zoned as R-2 with no additional Planned Development. All lots range between 10,000 square feet to 16,000 square feet in size, and may require Street Trees if they have a right of way located adjacent to SE Esker Ridge Drive. Mr. Kass explained that Sidewalks are proposed on either side of public streets, and the development would include extensions of both SE Willowbrook Drive, and SE Esker Ridge Drive. Storm water management is located to the north and west of the development. Public utilities are available to the site, and parkland dedication was satisfied with a 1.67 acre parcel within Kettlestone Ridge Plat 1. At this time staff recommends approval of the final plat for Kettlestone Ridge plat 3 subject to remaining staff comments, review of the legal documents, and completion of public improvements.  Commissioner Tietz questioned what is north of this development. Mr. Kass advised that north of the development is SE Tallgrass lane, and more residential development. J12  Commissioner Hoifeldt questioned if the one lot that is set to require Street trees in this development would still be buildable as it looked to be an odd shape. Mr. Kass advised that yes, it had been checked to make sure it was buildable.  Commissioner Koshy questioned if a street was set to go through the sliver of ground to connect to SE Ashworth Road. Mr. Kass advised that at this time, the applicant did not own a wide enough swath of ground to build that connection. Land would need to be acquired to the east or west in order to build that access point. If nothing changes there are still two access points from the north and west of the development and a long term access to the east for emergency service access. Commissioner Hoifeldt made a motion to approve the Final Plat for Kettlestone Ridge Plat 3 subject to remaining comments, review of legal documents, and completion of public improvements. Commissioner Koshy seconded the motion. Ayes: Sandie, Tietz, Hoifeldt, and Koshy. Nays: None. Motion Carries. STAFF REVIEW AND COMMENT: Staff’s position is that the proposed final plat meets the intent and the requirements of the R-2 Zoning District and the comprehensive plan.
