Docket No. 70-02 PP; Williams Ridge Subdivision The applicant seeks approval to plat a 6-lot residential subdivision. The site is located on the north side of 116th Street, ½ mile west of Gray Road. The site is zoned R-1/Residence. The petitioner also seeks approval of the following Subdivision Waivers: 70-02a SW SCO 8.9.1 sidewalks Filed by Max Mouser of Weihe Engineers. Max Mouser of Weihe Engineers appeared before the Committee representing the applicant. The applicant is seeking approval to plat a six-lot residential subdivision on the north side of 116th Street, approximately one-half mile west of Gray Road. Currently, the Bethlehem Chapel occupies this property. The bulk of the site is wooded; to the rear is an existing home to be removed. There is an existing ranch home to the front of the property. The project will be a cul-de-sac and will consist of six homes. There will be a common area on the east side of the cul-de-sac and the applicant is requesting removal of the sidewalk along the common area only—there would still be sidewalk all along the front of the project. The applicant is also requesting that the home on lot one would face the drive into the project rather than 116th Street. There would then be a seven-foot high masonry wall along the property to screen the project as well as several existing trees in the area. Scott Brewer met with the developer on site and has made recommendations. Scott is also working with Engineering in order to determine the feasibility of an asphalt path that would necessitate the removal of trees. Jon Dobosiewicz reported that the Department has not yet had a formal response from the City Engineer, but they are leaning toward continuing the five foot walk on either side of the development as opposed to requiring the path at this time. This project is a short segment between existing, developed areas. The Department is in support of the waiver requests and there will be a public hearing on those items regarding the orientation of the house toward an interior street and 2.
