(A Motion was made to bring Sims Norment back into the meeting by Francine Neeley, seconded by Tylesha Ross. Motion carried 5-0.) 14. Consideration of and action on the Preliminary Plat of Lot 1, Block of the Farmers Bank & Trust Addition, LCAD Property 22095, 17960, and 17962, located in the 3000 Block of Lamar Ave. Andrew Mack states that Farmer's Bank & Trust is requesting approval of a preliminary and final plat for property located at 2950 Lamar Ave. The site contains 1.23 acres. The property is a former rapid lube business and car wash, which is no longer in operation. The proposed redevelopment of the site is for a new bank and office building. The site is Zoned Planned Development and the proposed use is permitted in the PD District. The applicant has requested simultaneous preliminary and final plat approval with their application. The applicant shows a preliminary site plan layout on the proposed preliminary/final plat. Detailed plans for site storm water grading and drainage plans were not submitted with the preliminary plat. Staff has identified a number of concerns with utility and drainage improvements for the site. The preliminary plat does not include some minor setback information, significant tree removal if any, and site topography in a preliminary drainage plan as required under the City's preliminary plat submission requirements. This is not a major concern for approval of the preliminary plat given conditions can be imposed prior to approval of the final plat and site building plan. A number of other considerations must be addressed with the proposed development. Staff recommends approval with the following noted conditions: 1. Preliminary plat shall be revised to indicate any trees over 19" diameter and note if they are to be removed. 2. Chapter 9, Exhibit A, Section VIII.J - Prior to the construction of any proposed improvements, i.e. streets, drainage, utilities, etc., subdivider shall furnish complete plans and specifications of construction to the City Engineer. If any part of the proposed construction is considered unsatisfactory and below the standards required under the circumstances, construction operations shall not be started on the affected portion until alterations are made such that the completed work shall conform to the standards required by the City of Paris. The City Engineer shall be notified prior to beginning construction so that an inspection of said work can be conducted by the City during the construction. Upon completion of any such improvements and prior to issuance of a building permit, said improvements shall be inspected and accepted by the City. 3. Chapter 9, Exhibit A Section IV. - The minimum required set back lines shall be shown on the approved preliminary and final plat.
