previously approved and what is now requested remains in question as far as the plat boundaries. A plan for development of the site was not provided by the applicant. The property is zoned Commercial. Revisions for submission requirements and approval of the preliminary & final plats can still be met with cooperation of the applicant and his surveyor. It does, however, make it challenging on staff under the new provisions of the plat submittal shot -clock in Texas State Law to respond to inaccuracies of a clearer boundary summary, new preliminary plat and application documents when advanced communication with the applicant is absent. This is not the usual case for the development process in our City, but staff believes the details can be worked out through revisions to the preliminary and final plats. An initial approval with modification conditions that will address these uncertainties before the applicant returns an application to the Planning & Zoning Commission with appropriate revisions to the preliminary plat; along with simultaneous review and approval of a final plat can be achieved. Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat with the following conditions: 1. The application, re -plat title block, signature block and all other provisions of the submitted re -plat shall be revised to read as a preliminary plat and shall be re- submitted to the Planning & Zoning Commission for approval as a preliminary plat. 2. The final plat may be submitted with the revised preliminary plat for review and approval by the Planning & Zoning Commission and the City Council. A motion was made by Francine Neeley, seconded by Tylesha Ross -Mosley to approve the preliminary plat with noted conditions. Motion carried 5-0. 7. Consideration of and action on the Preliminary Plat of the Southside Baptist Youth Addition, Lot 1, Block A, LCAD Property ID 110901, located at 610 Jefferson Rd. Mack states the applicant requested preliminary & final plat approvals for the construction of a new youth activities building on the subject property. It contains approximately 5 acres. The proposed building will replace the previous structure in approximately the same location. The previous structure sustained complete loss damages due to a fire. The property is currently zoned Ag which permits a principal use of the property for a religious institution as previously approved. The minimum lot dimension requirements for the plat are met and all setbacks can be met. Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary and Final Plats, subject to the following conditions: 1. The rear 5 ft. building setback line is depicted but shall be changed to the minimum required 10' setback and shown on both the preliminary and final plats.
