EXCEPTION TO PLATTING: Request to subdivide a
33.87 acre parcel from Tract C, the undeveloped,
multifamily/duplex designated parcel of Woolbright
Place, Plat No. 1
Ms. Heyden stated that Richard Wolfarth of C.C.L. Consultants, Inc. is
requesting approval to further subdivide the Woolbright Place PUD. The PUD is
located on S. W. 8th Street, approximately 1,300 feet north of Woolbright Road.
The subdivison requested was to split up a 33.87 acre parcel from Tract C of the
Woolbright Place Plat. It is proposed to subdivide Tract C into three parcels

(a 33.87 acre piece, a 14 acre piece, and a .94 acre piece). The
regulations set forth conditions that have to be met in order not
recordation of a plat. The criterion applicable to this proposal
land is not to be divided into more than three contiguous lots.
Commissioner Aguila asked if four parcels would be created if the owner goes
bankrupt and someone buys the remainder of the property. (He was referring to
Phase 1, the right portion from the phase line.) Ms. Heyden said this issue
requires coordination between the Planning and Zoning Department and the
Engineering Department. However, her recommendation would be that it would
require replatting at that time. '
subdivision

is that the
Ms. Heyden stated that in addition to the fact that only three parcels are being
created, there is no need for any additional rights-of-ways or easements.
Therefore, in conjunction with the Engineering Department, staff recommends'
approval of this request as submitted. .
Motion
.. .. ~~~..
Commissioner Aguila moved to approve staff's recommendation. Commissioner Katz
seconded the motion.
Mr. Wolfarth asked for clarification. He referred to the parcel line and stated
that the 14 acre parcel in the bottom left corner more than likely will be
resubdivided. With the resubdivision of that property, which will require a
replatting, there is the potential that it will be back in front of this
Commission in about 30 days with a site plan and a PUD plan for review and con-
sideration. There is a potential that it may be under two separate entities.
In reading the staff report, he was of the impression that he has acknowledged
that part of the 14 acre parcel will be replatted and will no longer be part of
this plat, and that there would still be three parcels (Parcels 2A, 2B, and 3)
after the 14 acres are resubdivided. He was of the impression that would allow
the applicant to do it either way so that he does not have to come back again.
In Ms. Heyden's opinion, if there are separate entities, it is two separate
pieces of property and would require replatting independent of this.issue.
However, that would be subject to another exception to platting and would have
to come before the City Commission.
It seemed to Mayor Hanmening that the more we have exceptions to platting, the
more problems we allow to be created in the future. He pointed out that it has
happened several times.
Mr. Wolfarth was willing to sit down with staff again to resolve these matters.
He stated that if he needs to come back to the Commission for reclarification or
a readdressing, he will do so in the future when the parcel lines are further
defined, if that happens. Commissioner Aguila said he needs to define his
intent, discuss it with staff, get an interpretation from the City Attorney if
necessary, and if need be, come back to the City Commission.

be approved consistent with pther PUDs infthe City, and that the twentY-five
feet be totall;y within the ,doundaries of i'th1s property. T~e reasons for this
are: (1) It ItS very hard to insure thatjlandscape buffer1 are retained as or1-
1nal1y required; (2) The yremise behind,fequiring a bUff,r is that the use that
is creating the impact 1~ithe one thatfllas to mitigate; ,and (3) By splitting the
buffer, there is no guap!nty that you,ould have a uni~ed design, construction,
or timing and maintenance of that b~~1,er. Therefore, ,~taff recorrmends that the
