STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends approval of the request with the following conditions:
1. Drainage from the entire site should be directed to its northwest corner so that it flows
westerly instead of southerly down Crow Road. (Drainage District #6)
2. Sidewalk must be provided along Crow Road.
3. New construction must be elevated to at least 28.5' for the lowest floor.
4. Landscaping must be provided to meet ordinance requirements.
5. Dumpster must be screened completely from street with fencing and landscaping.
Dumpster shall be located a minimum of 25' from adjacent properties.
NewQuest Properties would like to construct a new shopping center at 4490 Crow Road. The site
may be occupied by retail, medical offices or restaurants.
Traffic has the potential to be an issue at this location. The City Traffic Division would like to
see a Traffic Impact Analysis of the property prior to development.
This property is located in the flood hazard. Properties along Dowlen and Crow Roads are
mostly developed in this area, creating large amounts of runoff during rain events. New flood
maps show a BFE (Base Flood Elevation) of 27' just west of this property. Therefore, the
lowest floor of new construction must be at least 18" above BFE.
Landscaping requirements shall include 8 foot privacy, wood or masonry, screening fences and
10' wide landscaped buffers along east and south property lines, as well as perimeter landscaping
at right-of-way, and islands for parking areas.
Please note that final occupancy approval is subject to review and acceptance of submitted plans
and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
Exhibits are attached.
