Item No. 11 Memorandum TO:: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem and City Council Grayson Path, City Manager FROM: Andrew Mack, AICP Director Planning & Community Development SUBJECT: Consideration and action on the Preliminary Plat of the Davidson Addition C13250, Lot 1, Block A, LCAD Property ID 53721, located at 891 Clement Rd. MTG. DATE: June 27, 2022 BACKGROUND The applicant requested simultaneous approval of Preliminary & Final Plats. The property was just rezoned MF -l. The intended purpose for the platting is for the demolition and reconstruction of new 9 unit apartment. The use is permitted by right in the MF -1 District. At its meeting held on 6/6/22 the P&Z denied the preliminary plat and recommended denial of the final plat to the City Council. The reason for the recommended denial is based upon the attached memo from the Engineering Department for substantial reasons associated with the plat as presented for approval. State law requires that each body of the city review and take action on the plat application within 30 days. Since there is such little time within a 30 day shot clock, there are really only two options for city action with incomplete submissions under the new state law. They are: 1. Approve the plat with conditions. 2. Deny the plat with reasons. Both options must tie each condition or reason to city code or state law. In this instance, the P&Z agreed with the staff recommendation for denial and the applicant was notified in writing of the denial, with the stated reasons, and the procedure for re-application which must be acted upon within a shortened time- frame of 2 weeks by each body. RECOMMENDATION Staff and the P&Z recommends denial of the Final Plat according to the attached recommended reasons in the Engineering Memo.
