The Phase I final plat area consists of POD H (Harmony Island),, POD P (Wood Duck Island), as well as future recreational and clubhouse area, rights-of-way, open areas and waterbodies. The two PODS (H & P) consist of approximately 26 acres with 250 dwelling units which results in an overall density of 2.07 units per acre. The subject property is zoned RM -6 (Multi -Family Residential, up to 6 units/acre) and has an MD -1 (Medium Density Residential, up to 8 units/acre) land use designation. At its regular meeting of October 9, 1986, the Planning and Zoning Commission granted preliminary PRD plan approval for Phase I of the Grand Harbor project. The owners, Grand Harbor, Inc., are now requesting that final plat approval be granted to the Grand Harbor Phase I plat with the understanding that the developer, shall, prior to final plat approval being given by the Board of County Commissioners at its meeting of March 22, 1988: 1. submit an approved letter of credit guaranteeing the contract for construction of required improvements; and 2. shall obtain a DOT permit for road improvements constructed across a DOT drainage right-of-way. As of March 14, 1988, the developer has submitted: 1. a final plat, substantially in conformance with the approved preliminary PRD plan; and 2. a contract for construction of the remaining required improvements. ANALYSIS: At the time this item was prepared for the March 22, 1988 Board of County Commissioners meeting, two issues concerning final plat approval remained unresolved. These two items are, as mentioned above, the required submission of an approvable letter of credit, guaranteeing the contract for construction of required improve- ments and the issue of DOT right-of-way conflict. In order to keep on schedule, the developers have requested that the Phase I plat be allowed to remain on the March 22, 1988 Board meeting provided that both of these outstanding items areresolved prior to the meeting date [see attachment #1]. The required improvements within the Phase I plat boundaries have been substantially finished. Several items do, however, remain unfinished and the developers have submitted certified cost estimates for the remaining improvements and a contract for construction which binds them to complete these improvements in the near future. Both the cost estimates and the contract for future construction have been approved by the Public Works Depart- ment and the county Attorney's office, respectively, and meet all subdivision requirements. All required utility improvements have been inspected and approved by the County Utility Department for the water and sewer system leading to the POD's. Completion of the utility system within each POD will be controlled and approved at the time individual unit C.O.'s are issued. MAR 2 2 1988 BOOK 71 FACE 30G
