Councilman Guest made a motion for approval, which was seconded by Councilman Wilson. The motion carried 7 ayes, 0 nays. Mayor Fendley called for consideration of and action on the Preliminary Plat of Tobin Business Park on Lot 11-E, City Block 316, Pine Mill Road. City Attorney Schenk said this was originally tabled and reconsidered at the Planning and Zoning meeting. Community Development Director Lisa Wright explained that, since there had been a concern over drainage in the area and no one had been present at the original meeting, the item was tabled. She continued that the Surveyor came to the meeting today and presented ideas to deal with the drainage from the Developer and the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the plat subject to the Engineer’s recommendations. On a question from Councilman Wilson, City Engineer Shawn Napier explained this was a private drive and they will have to have a thirty (30) foot egress-ingress easement. A discussion followed concerning the requirements for private drives. Several Council members voiced concern that someone would come up in the future and ask the City to repair the drive and wanted to put a stipulation on that so the people would know that the drive was not the City’s responsibility. Councilman Bell said he would like to require that they put up a sign indicating it is a private drive and put that stipulation in an ordinance, that all private drives built would have to have a sign. Councilman Bell left the meeting at 6:23 P. M. and returned at 6:24 P. M. Councilman Poston left the meeting at 6:24 P. M. and returned at 6:25 P. M.
