PUBLIC HEARING - Covey Glen/Floodplain/Rezone/Subdivision
Preliminary Plat:
APPLICANT: Barry Peters
TYPE OF APPLICATION: Floodplain/Rezone/Preliminary Plat
LOCATION: 3/4 mile west of Eagle Road south of and along Mace
Road.
PROPOSED LAND USE AND ZONING: Proposed zoning of AR, a 4 lot
subdivision on 28.12 acres with approx. 7 acres per unit (.142
dwellings per acre). Proposed project is partially in floodway
and floodplain.
Barry Peters, applicant and owner, outlined the project for the
Commission. Will be a 28 acre subdivision involving only 4
parcels arranged around a 5 acre pond. Each parcel will be owned
by members of the family. Three major problems were encountered
in planning subdivision and have been resolved: (1) high ground
water makes land unsuitable for septic. Use of enclosed
evapotranspiration system has been been approved by Central
District Health. (2) Mace road is sub-standard. ACHD has
proposed a collector road from Eagle Road out to back side of
Quarter Circle DJ Ranch. (3) Western 20 acres of property in
floodway. Homes will be elevated above BFE and FEMA has approved
no rise analysis.
Public Testimony:
Opposed: Charlie Porter, property owner to west. Biggest
concern is flooding and resulting damage to his property.
