FILE: Preliminary Plat of Doguet’s Diamond D Ranch, Phase 3A ___ STAFF REPORT The Planning staff recommends approval with the following condition: 1. Design storm drain outfall pipe and conveyance to a 100-year storm event per DD6 requirements. Fittz & Shipman, Inc. has requested preliminary plat approval of Doguet’s Diamond D Ranch, Phase 3A. The property is located south of U.S. Highway 90 between W. Rice Field Lane and Green Pond Road in the ETJ. The development is a 17.796 acre, single family residential subdivision. The proposed layout shows twelve (12) single family lots, two (2) Blocks and a 4.05 acre common area. All lots will access U.S. 90 via the proposed extension of the existing Michelle Lane and existing Diamond D Drive. Sanitary sewer will be individual aerobic treatment units. Water will be provided by extension of water lines from Meeker Water Supply Corporation. This property is located within the Planning Area of the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction. As such, the design standards of the improvements would be in accordance with County standards. However, it should be noted that in this phase, the block length will be longer than the 1,200 foot maximum and the cul-de-sac will be located in excess of the 800 foot maximum length until such time that this unit connects to planned future development to the south. As such, we are recommending a waiver to these two requirements. This item was sent to all interested parties. Exhibits are attached.
