Donnay Homes, Inc. has made application for Preliminary Plat approval of Prairie Meadows 2nd Addition, a plat proposing 24 single family lots and three (3) outlots designated for stormwater ponding purposes. The subject property is generally located north of Wood Duck Trail, west of Marschall Road and south of Meadow Lane in the Urban Residential (R-1B) Zone.
The project would consist of a new road extending east off Jennifer Lane, with future plans for the road to be extending to the north and connecting with Meadow Lane in Prairie Meadows 1st Addition if/when additional development occurs in this area. This property, along with several others located south of Valley Creek Crossing 2nd Addition and north of Timber Trails, was included in a recent extension of Jennifer Lane that now connects these two (2) subdivisions, along with extended services along this new corridor.
The developer has spent considerable time working with staff on the design of this subdivision. Additionally, the developer is working with City staff to develop a park for this area of the community. Final design of this park has not yet been completed, but draft conditions are included that address the development of this park in the near future. Planning staff did receive comments from several review agencies (City Engineering, SPUC and the Parks & Recreation Department), and have incorporated their comments into the draft conditions. | | |
