PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL WITH VARIANCES FOR WINDSONG
ON THE LAKE SECOND ADDITION
FEBRUARY 21, 1995
Application was made for preliminary plat approval of Windsong on the
Lake Second Addition in November of 1994. The staff review determined
the need for a lot width variance to allow one lot with a width of 52 feet
instead of the required 86 feet at the front yard setback line.
The Planning Commission reviewed this request on January 5, 1994.
Specific concerns were raised at that time regarding the need for
increased right-of-way at the intersection of County Road 21 and Lord's
Street and the effect this would have on the proposed plat. In addition,
comments from neighbors raised concerns relating to safety problems
associated with the intersection of proposed Schroeder Circle and
Windsong Circle as well as concerns about increased density within the
subdivision. Staff recommended the request be postponed at that time to
allow the developer time to work with staff and Scott County to resolve
any right-of-way issues and the issues raised by neighborhood residents.
Meetings were held with the Scott County Highway Engineer and the
applicant and the preliminary plat has been modified to reflect the
increased right-of-way needs resulting from the County Road
improvement as well as other issues raised by the Engineering
Department during their review.
With the exception of the items called out in the Resolution of Approval
for the preliminary plat, the remaining issues identified by staff have been
addressed satisfactorily. It was further staff's opinion that the concerns
raised by neighborhood residents regarding the safety of the intersection
of proposed Schroeder Circle and Windsong Circle are adequately
addressed through the proposed design and staff does not believe that
further modification of the layout is necessary or desirable.
Council has the foll<;)wing alternatives:
1. Approve the amended preliminary plat and variance application
as contained in the attached Resolution.
2. Table the request.
