HENDERSON, 1325 Paramount, request for a waiver of platting requirement on property in the 5100 block on Whitaker Road. Property is presently zoned R-2, Limited Residential. Steve Smart explained the reason why Mr. Henderson was asking for a wavier of platting. He drew a map on the board showing the location of the property and the platting of the other property in the area. The commission then discussed: 1. The future plans for that area 2. Access into the property being critical 3. The extension of Hiway Avenue 4. Consistency in what the commission does 5. Sewer and water services availability in the area Pete Anderson made a motion that we recommend to the city council to deny the request for the wavier of platting based on the fact that we feel that the city needs to have control over how that property is going to be subdivided and know how its going to be subdivided. The other reason is that we do not know the size of the lot at this time whether he's buying a lot the same size as Vern Briscoe or not. On those two reasons I would move that we recommend to the city council that they deny the wavier of platting. Richard Pearson seconded the motion. members voted in favor. Ail commission 2.
