F_ AUG 131980 BOOK 44 PAGE 269 TENTATIVE APPROVAL SHADY OAKS SuBDivisioN - APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS SENIOR PLANNER DAVID MARSH NOTED THAT THIS IS A CONTINUANCE FROM THE LAST MEETING'S AGENDA. THE DEVELOPMENT CONSISTS OF APPROXI- MATELY 38 ACRES TO BE DIVIDED INTO 50 LOTS OF VARIOUS SIZES. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON 43RD AVENUE ONE QUARTER MILE SOUTH OF OSLO ROAD AND BACKS UP TO GROVENOR ESTATES, UNIT 1. THE PROPOSED DRAINAGE FLOWS TO KELLEY ROAD AND 43RD AVENUE CANALS. MR. MARSH NOTED THAT THE AGENT AND OWNER ARE PRESENT, AND HE BELIEVED THAT THEY WISH TO APPEAL THE DECISION OF THE PLANNING STAFF THAT HALF ROADS ARE REQUIRED BY THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS. THE STAFF, IN THEIR INTERPRETATION OF THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS, HAS TAKEN THE POSITION THAT THE DEVELOPER IS REQUIRED TO EITHER PAVE OR PUT UP SURETY FOR THE HALF OR PARTIAL STREETS ABUTTING THE PROPOSED SUBDIVISION. THIS IS BASICALLY TO INSURE CONTINUITY WITH SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENTS. MR, MARSH CONTINUED THAT THE DEVELOPER AGREES THAT THE DEDICATIONS ARE APPROPRIATE, BUT WOULD NOT AGREE THAT THE PAVING OF THE HALF ROAD OR ESCROW FOR SAME IS APPROPRIATE EITHER ON 12TH STREET CONNECTING THE TWO SUBDIVISIONS OR ON THE CONNECTOR ROAD TO THE NORTH VACANT PROPERTY. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT STATED THAT HE HAD TALKED TO PLANNING DIRECTOR REVER ABOUT THIS SITUATION AND ASKED WHETHER HE ANTICIPATED THAT 39TH AVENUE, WHICH IS LOCATED AT THE BACK OF THIS SUBDIVISION.- EVER UBDIVISION, EVER WOULD BE CUT THROUGH. HE SAID HE DID NOT BECAUSE OF THE CANALS AT THE NORTH AND SOUTH, AND INASMUCH AS WE HAD MOVED THE BRIDGE TO 12TH STREET, IT WOULD CREATE A CIRCULATION PATTERN FOR THIS SUBDIVI- SION: SO, HE COULD NOT, AT THAT TIME, THINK OF ANY REASON FOR REQUIR- ING THEM TO PAVE THE HALF STREET IN BACK. MR. REVER DID WANT TRACT D DEDICATED SO THERE WOULD BE ACCESS TO THE NORTH. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT DID NOT NECESSARILY AGREE WITH THAT AND INQUIRED THE PURPOSE FOR CONNECTING THESE TWO SUBDIVISIONS. MR. MARSH STATED THAT THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS DO REQUIRE INTERCONNECTION OF DEVELOPMENT PROPERTIES, AND THE STAFF FEELS THERE WILL BE A MAJOR PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE IF WE CONTINUE TO ALLOW SUB- DIVISIONS TO DEVELOP WITHOUT ANY CONNECTION BECAUSE THIS WILL PUT A HEAVY RELIANCE ON ALL YOUR MAJOR THOROUGHFARES. MR. MARSH STATED HE HAD UNDERSTOOD THAT MR, REVER DID NOT FEEL THIS WOULD BE A MAJOR COLLECTOR. w r
