simultaneously been submitted for a zone change. (Joint Public Hearing scheduled for October 10,
1994.)
They are requesting approval of the preliminary plat prior to the zone change since they need to
finalize their financing.
City Engineer John Hargrove recommended approval with the corrections specified below.
Division Director Richard Burdine stated he would get a copy of the plat to the Riverwalk Home
Owner's Association so they are aware of this development, including the extension of Chelsea
Lane. He further stated that when Sunset Meadows Subdivision was developed and Sunset
Meadows Drive built, the City Council allowed a 28 feet wide street (rather than 41' wide) so long
as the developer feels that he can successfully market the lots without on- street parking.
The Commission discussed alternatives to resolve possible parking problems with the 28' wide
street.
Vice Chairman Pat Lopez made the motion, seconded by Commissioner Charles Philipp to approve
the preliminary plat of Sunset Meadows, Section 3, with the corrections as required by the City
Engineer.
