CONSIDERATION OF A PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR THE BARN AT TERRA VERDE ADDITION. (1000 36TH AVENUE S.E.)
Body
BACKGROUND: This item is a preliminary plat for The Barn at Terra Verde Addition, which is generally located on the west side of 36th Avenue S.E. approximately one-half mile north of East Lindsey Street. The preliminary plat consists of 56.91 acres. Lot 1 consists of 15.87 acres and currently has an existing private school. Lot 2 consists of 10.86 acres and has a proposal of a gym (barn) supporting the school. Lot 3 consists of 10.12 acres and has an existing-single-family residence with no proposed changes. Lot 4 consists of 20.05 acres and has an existing single family residence with no proposed changes. This area is currently not served by public sanitary sewer systems. The existing structures will continue to be served by private sanitary sewer systems. The proposed new structure will be served by a public sanitary sewer main, which is located in the adjacent residential subdivision called Siena Springs Addition.
