Strategic Plan Link: The City's Goal of a diverse local economy and employment opportunities.
Executive Summary (General Business): The City has received an application for preliminary and final subdivision plat approval for Southern Grove Plat No. 47. Southern Grove Plat No. 47 is a replat of Lot 6, Southern Grove Plat No. 46. Lot 6, is an approximately 19.12 acre tract that includes the acreage for the previous alignment for the E/W 3 (Marshall Parkway)/I-95 interchange and the acreage for the new alignment for the E/W 3 (Marshall Parkway)/I-95 interchange. The new alignment is depicted on Map H, the master development plan for the Southern Grove DRI. This application subdivides Lot 6 to create an approximately 16.59 acre right-of-way tract for the new Marshall Parkway/I-95 interchange, an approximately 7.54 acre tract for future development and an approximately 2.47 acre water management tract. The water management tract will be dedicated the Southern Grove Community Development District No.5, the Marshall Parkway road right-of-way will be dedicated to the City, and the approximately 7.54 acre tract is reserved for the owners (GFC).
Presentation Information: Staff will be available to answer any questions.
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Council approve the subdivision plat under Section 156.023 of the Subdivision Code to provide a waiver to the requirements for construction plans and a subdivision bond or surety for the Marshall Parkway road right-of-way subject to the following condition:
1. All comments and redlines, as indicated on corresponding letter (attachment 9) and marked up plat, boundary survey, closure report, and parcel map reports (attachments 10, 11, 12, and 13, respectively) from the City Surveyor must be satisfied prior to the recordation of the subdivision plat.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Council amend the recommendation and approve the subdivision plat under Section 156.023 of the Subdivision Code to provide a waiver to the requirements for construction plans and a subdivision bond or surety for the Marshall Parkway road right-of-way subject to the condition noted above.
2. Move that the Council not approve the plat and provide staff direction.
Background: The Site Plan Review Committee recommended approval of the proposed preliminary and final subdivision plat at the September 25, 2024, Site Plan Review Committee meeting.
Section 156.056 (C) of the Zoning Code requires submittal of construction plans when a subdivision plat creates a right-of-way tract. Section 156.059 of the Subdivision Code requires a surety to guarantee installation of required infrastructure improvements. Since the Marshall Parkway right-of-way tract is a future interchange that requires future studies, state approval which takes multiple years, and designated funding, there are no construction plans to go with the right-of-way tract for the Marshall Parkway Interchange at this time. The subdivision plat establishes the proposed alignment for the future interchange.
Issues/Analysis: Section 156.023 provides for the City Council to have the power to grant exceptions from the requirements for subdivision approval as may be reasonable and within the general purpose and intent of the provisions for subdivision review and approval of the chapter, if the literal enforcement of one (1) or more provisions of the chapter is impracticable or will exact undue hardship because of peculiar conditions pertaining to the land in question.
