PLAT WAIVIER REQUEST
8� Collinsville Lumber Company
Vice-chairman George asked staff to present case history and recommenda-
tion which was as follows
This particular 5 acre tract was annexed in May, 1979 and --later zoned
CG commercial general, to accommodate a proposed lumber yard operation.
The applicant has applied for a plat waiver under Section 260 of the
10-i.)Ang Ordinance,
SECTION 260 PLATTING REQUIREMENT
For the purpose of providing a.. proper arrangement of streets and assuring
the adequacy of open spaces for traffic, utilities, and access of emergency
hicles, commensurate with the intensi
ve fication of land use customarily
incident to a change of zoning, a platting requirement is established as
follows
For any land which has been rezoned upon application of a private
party, no building permit shall be issued until that portion of
the tract on which the permit is sought has been included within
a subdivision plat or replat, as the case may be, submitted to
the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation, approved
by the City Council, and filed of record in the office of the County
Clerk where the property is situated. Provided that the City Council
pursuant to their exclusive jurisdiction of subdivision plats, may
remove the platting requirement upon a determination that the above
stated purposes have been achieved by previous platting or could not
be achieved by a plat or replat®
In the case of this plat waiver request, staff is concerned with a) right-
of-way of 116th Street North, b) access control, and c) drainage and
paving,
Applicant has submitted a plot plan and deed of dedication for 50 feet of
right-of-way on 116th Street North.
Due to the fact that there are existing water and sewer lines to service
property, and that it is a one lot, single use situation; Staff recommends
ap_Rrovalof the plat waiver request and submitted plot plan subject to the
following conditions:
1) Plot plan should show the following items:
a) Existing water and sewer lines,
b) Indicate location of monuments (iron corner pins).
2) Provide a fire hydrant at the southeast corner of the tract,
next to the 30' driveway access.
3) Provide a 10' utility easement around the periphery of the
tract. (Should be filed under separate instrument.)
4') Provide for an 18 inch diameter drainage culvert along 11 t
Street North under both driveway access (per County Engineer),,
5) Move the proposed sign in back of the front property line as
required by the zoning ordinance,
Staff also recommends I:ba.t the Planning Commission and City Council
consider as an additional condition to plat waiver, the provision for
solid fencing rather that the proposed chain link fencing around the
tract for the following reasons:
a) To provide visual separation between the open storage areas
of the lumber yard and the adjoining church to the east,
and future development on the north and west,
b) The qualities of a solid fencing (wood or otherwise) would
be more effective in preventing a fire from spreading and
would result in better control of the fire during fire
fighting, than would a chain link fence.
Staff noted that a revised plot plan submitted after the Technical
Advisory Committee had reviewed the original plot plan, met the
conditions numbered 1-5 in the staff recommendation.
L. George noted that the Commission expressed to the representatives
of the church abutting this tract on the east, at the zoning public
hearing, that the commission would recommend "effective" screening
around the lumber yard during the platting process.
M. Hinkle made a motion to recommend approval of the plat waiver
subject to a solid fence being built around the west, north, and
east boundary of the tract, J. Simmons seconded the motion.
For: L - George, J. Simmons, M. Hinkle and E. Stevens.
Against: None.
Motion passed 4-0.
Staff noted that this case will be forwarded to City Council for final
consideration on August 7, 19790

Owasso. General discussion involved informational questions and answers
concerning items such as existing sewer capacity, future sewer improve-
ments, EPA standards, etc,

7000 p.m. to view the sewer and water system in Owasso
