received approval by the Plan Commission over the last 18th months.
The main north/south roadway serving the subdivision stubs to ultimately provide for the
connection of 126th Street with the Hayden Run Subdivision to the north. The roadway completes
the segment between the 126th Street and 14lst Street. The Commission has seen this connection
in the approved many of the illustrated subdivisions (see exhibit provided by applicant). The
Thoroughfare Plan supports these connections.
The applicant has provided a summary of the comprehensive traffic impact analysis prepared for
the proposed developments in the area submitted earlier this year. This study will provide a
guide in determining the appropriate location for future roadway improvements.
The applicant has requested consideration of five Subdivision Waivers. All of the waiver
requests relate to the design of Kilkenny Circle. The applicant should be prepared to review
these with the Commission. The Department is in favor ofthe requested waivers as they allow a
unique solution to often times unattractive cul-de-sac layouts.
The Department recommends that this item be forwarded to the Subdivision Committee on
February 4th for further discussion.
