CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: MAY 22, 2017
AGENDA #: 5R
PREPARED BY: JEFF MATZKE, PLANNER
PRESENTED BY: JEFF MATZKE
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION WAIVING PLATTING
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SUBDIVISION OF PROPERTIES LOCATED
ALONG CARRIAGE HILLS PARKWAY AND ROLLING OAKS CIRCLE
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to review a request for the subdivision of
parcels of residential land located on the proposed Trillium Cove Plat. The
properties are located near Carriage Hills Parkway and Rolling Oaks Circle.
History
Pulte Homes plans to develop the three parcels of land as the Trillium Cove
Residential Planned Unit Development. The current property owner desires
to maintain ownership of some areas along Rolling Oaks Circle and at the
southern edge of the development site (south of Carriage Hills Parkway).
The parcels are designated as Urban Low Density (R-LD) on the 2030
Comprehensive Plan Map and are zoned Low Density Residential (R-1).
Current Circumstances
The developer is requesting a waiver of the platting requirements to allow
subdivision of 4 smaller parcels from the larger 3 current parcels of land that
are proposed for the Trillium Cove Residential Development Plan. The
developer would like to acquire the bulk of the 3 larger parcel areas prior to
approval of the Trillium Cove Final Plat so that grading work could
commence following preliminary plat approval. In order for the acquisition
to take place the developer proposes to subdivide 4 smaller areas (two
parcels along Rolling Oaks and two parcels at the southern edge of the site)
so that ownership of these areas may be maintained by the current owner of
the properties. These areas would be possible for future development and
would not hinder any current development or public infrastructure plans at
this time.
Conclusion
The applicant is requesting a waiver of platting requirements to subdivide
the parcels to create four smaller parcel areas separate from the main
development parcels so that a transfer of ownership for the larger parcels
can take place before the Trillium Cove Final Plat is approved. This would
allow the developer to acquire the development site area and commence
grading following preliminary plat approval. In this case, the obligation of the
platting requirements creates an unnecessary hardship for the property
owner to subdivide the property. The following are conditions of approval
for the plat waiver:
• The plat waiver is subject to approval of the Trillium Cove Preliminary
Plat
• The property owner must submit deeds for the newly created parcels.
ISSUES: The subdivision or combination of is regulated by Subsection 1006.100 of
the City Subdivision Ordinance. Subsections 1006.104–106 state the
following:
1006.104 Conveyance By Metes And Bounds. No division of one or
more parcels in which the land conveyed is described by metes and bounds
shall be recorded if the division is a subdivision, as defined by the
Subdivision Ordinance. Building permits will be withheld for buildings or
tracts that have been subdivided and conveyed by this method without City
approval and the City may refuse to take over tracts as streets or roads or
to improve, repair or maintain any such tracts.
1006.105 Exceptions. The provisions of Section 1006.104 do not
apply where all the resulting parcels, tracts, lots, or interests will be twenty
(20) acres or larger in size and five hundred feet (500’) in width for residential
uses and least five (5) acres or larger in size for commercial and industrial
uses.
1006.106 Council Resolution Waiving Requirements. In any case in
which compliance with the foregoing restrictions will create an unnecessary
hardship and failure to comply will not interfere with the purpose of this
Section, the Council may waive such compliance by the adoption of a
resolution to that effect and the conveyance may then be filed.
