TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Consider the Preliminary Plat of Brownstone Estates, Lots 1-27; 10.5283 acres.
FILE: Preliminary Plat - Brownstone Estates
STAFF REPORT
Steven Brown wishes to develop a 10-1/2 acre tract for single family purposes. The tract is
carried as acreage and is not within the Calder Highlands Extension Addition as is the
Brownstone Subdivision to the north. A public hearing is not required. The 27 lots proposed
will front on three private streets. The 27 proposed lots exceed the width and depth
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for single family lots. Average lot size is 100' x 145.
At the time of this writing, the Planning staff has received the following comments:
1) Traffic Engineering - Requires two additional street lights: one at the northeast comer
of Lot 27 in Brownstone Place Street and one in Brownstone Place between Lots 17
and 18;
2) City Engineer - There are no easements shown for the sanitary sewer, water lines or
storm sewers. The streets where much of the city set -vices are located are private.
3) Planning Division - Proposed restrictions and property owner covenants have not
been received. No easements are shown on the plat for the use of the franchised
utilities, fire hydrants or street lights. If there is to be a future Section Two of
Brownstone Estates, then the title of this subdivision should include Section One and
Block One. Scrivener errors on the plat - identification of surrounding properties as
"Replat Brownstone" instead of Brownstone Subdivision, Calder "Highland"
Extension, instead of the correct Calder Highlands Extension. Remove "Field note
description" under location map. Street names Brownstone Street and Brownstone
Lane will lead to confusion with Brownstone Place and a future proposed
Brownstone Drive.
The proposed subdivision is in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance and the
Comprehensive Plan. Approval should be subject to conditions.
