Item 4L Department of Planning & Development Services S T A F F R E P O R T June 9, 2015 CASE NO: ZA14-049 PROJECT: Variance to Plat Expiration for Kimball Park Final Plat EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Adams Engineering is requesting approval of a Variance to Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, Section 4.01(I), as amended, regarding plat expiration, requesting to extend the validity of case ZA14-049, Final Plat for Kimball Park on property described as Tracts 3A1A and 3A2A, Thomas Mahan Survey, Abstract No. 1049, City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas and located at 400 and 470 N. Kimball Ave., Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: S-P-2 Generalized Site Plan District. SPIN Neighborhood # 4. REQUEST DETAILS: The applicant is requesting approval of avariance to the Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, Section 4.01(I) (Plat Expiration), as amended, and is requesting that the validity of Case No. ZA14-049, Final Plat for Kimball Park, be extended for an additional six months to December 9, 2015. Section 4.01(I) states that a Final Plat which has not been recorded in the County Plat Records within one year of the date of approval shall expire. The Final Plat was approved by the Planning & Zoning Commission on May 8, 2014. Final plats for subdivisions requiring the installation of streets and utilities are typically not recorded until these improvements have been installed and are ready to be accepted by the City. This ensures that street right-of-ways and easements are correctly shown based on as-built conditions and also ensures that all the new lots of record are properly served by streets and utilities. The Final Plat for this development has not been recorded due to re-approval of the Cambria Hotel and Suites zoning and site plan and has thus expired. The plat should be recorded within the next 90 days. The applicant is requesting an extension of six months. If approved, the new expiration date for the Final Plat for Kimball Park would be December 9, 2015.
