Home My WebLink AboutPreliminary Plat - Dowlen West, Unit XXIVDATE: October 6, 1997 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director SUBJECT: Consider the Preliminary Plat of Dowlen West, Unit XXIV, 3.49 acres out of the, H. Williams Survey. FILE: Preliminary Plat - Dowlen West, Unit XXIV Dowlen West, Unit 24 Addition will be developed into a twelve lot residential single family development, Galway Drive and Westgate Drive will be extended to provide through access to the surrounding subdivisions. The street extensions will be concrete paved with curb and gutters, complying with city standards. Storm sewer and water lines are proposed to be constructed in the right-of-way of both proposed streets. Sanitary sewer lines are also proposed to be constructed in the utility easements that are to run through the proposed lots. Drainage is provided by the DD#6 drainage ditch which borders the west side of the subdivision. All the appropriate city departments and utility entities were notified and responded with no objection to the proposed plat. The proposed plat complies with the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision regulations of the City. The plat complies with the Comprehensive Plan which calls for infill development to match the surrounding development in areas designated stable. The development consists of Lots 30-32, Block 32, Dowlen West, Unit 24; Lots 30-33, Block 33, Dowlen West, Unit 24; and Lots 15-19, Block 37, Dowlen West, Unit 24. NOTE: This property received a preliminary plat approval as Westgate Second Addition from the Planning Commission in November of 1988. The subdivision was not developed as proposed by the developer at that time. Mr. Street is the new developer of the property. He developed much of the earlier Dowlen West sections. Exhibits are attached. arro�ll & lackman, Inc.

Box 3827 Beaumont, Texas 77704 Consulting Engineers & Surveyors 15 September 1997eny OF BEAUMONT PLANNING �SiORFCVED Attn: Mr. Stephen Richardson, AICP Planning Director Dear Mr. Richardson: SEP J 5 1997 Re: Dowlen West Unit XXIV Transmitted herewith in regard to the above referenced are the following: 1) 30 prints of the preliminary plat for Dowlen West Unit XXIV 2) $300.00 application fee (check no. 8226) 3) 4 copies of the drainage plan for this development This preliminary plat for Dowlen West Unit XXIV is basically the same planned layout that was approved by the City in 1988, submitted as Westgate Place 11. Dowlen West Unit XXIV will consist of 12 lots for single family residences and will cross connect the two dead ends of Galway Drive with Westgate Drive. Water mains will also be cross connected as a part of this project. With the exception of water, all other utilities (sanitary sewer, electrical service, gas, cable, etc.) are existing and located in easements along the rear of the lots. On the five proposed lots backing up to the drainage ditch the developer proposes to extend the existing 20 foot utilities easement adjoining these lots along the rear, consistent with the existing services. All! water mains and sanitary sewer lines will be constructed per City specifications. All streets constructed within this development will be built to City standard. The developer plans to transition the pavement on Westgate Drive over a distance of 100 feet from the existing width of 37 feet to 27 feet. As we briefly discussed in our meeting with the Traffic Engineer several weeks ago, Westgate, west of Shakespeare Drive, is no longer designated as a major collector. This segment of Westgate Drive was deleted: from the City of Mr. Stephen Richardson, AICP City Of Beaumont Planning Director 15 September 1997 Page 2 Beaumont's major street and highway plan a number of years, ago when plans to extend Westgate through to Major Drive were no longer considered. This transition section should have no real impact traffic -wise and simply allow Westgate to function as the other 6 east - west streets between Shakespeare and Galway do at the typical residential width of 27 feet back to back of curb. Two additional' street lights are planned at the locations shown. Galway currently has light poles at both existing ends of pavement. Storm sewers will be constructed to provide drainage for this site and will take in runoff from the extension of these streets and lots only. Inlets are proposed at the intersection with outfall to the adjacent concrete lined drainage ditch (D202-E). Storm sewers and inlet structures will be built to City specification. Entry and repair to the concrete liner will comply with DD6 standards. The developer, Don Streety, had been working with Sun Pipe Line to relocate their existing 4" pipeline that crosses the northwest corner of the property. It now appears they have decided to abandon this line which will be removed prior to construction on the two lots affected. We trust that this development plan will meet with the Planning Commission's favorable approval at the upcoming meeting scheduled for October 6th. Duringyour review, if you or your staff have and questions or comments, certainly feel free to call. Respectfully submitted, CARROLL & BLACKMAN, INC. Consulting Engineers & Surveyors Joe P ttie, E.T.
