. . . Planning Commission Minutes January 26. 1999 Page 4 6.3. Reauest by Tony Emmerich of Country Ridae Inc. for Preliminary Plat Approval for Preliminary Plat approval of Country Crossina Business Center Third Addition staff report presented by Scott Harlicker. Country Ridge, Inc. has requested preliminary plat approval to subdivide Outlot A of Country Crossing Business Center Second Addition into two lots, Lot 1 (6 acres) and Lot 2 (7.97 acres). Scott reviewed issues regarding buffering, access. drainage and utilities. Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat with the conditions outlined in the staff report. Terry Maurer indicated that the site will be served by utilities off of Business Center Drive. He noted that utilities were stubbed in assuming there would be one user. Since there will now be two lots. it will now be necessary to obtain easements to serve each of lots. He recommended adding a condition that development of the lots follow the approved overall drainage plan for Country Crossing Business Center. Chair Cote suggested an additional condition that the easements be provided for the public utilities on both lots. Terry indicated that when a development proposal is reviewed for either of the lots. looping of the watermain will be discussed at that time. Chair Cote opened the public hearing. Tammy White oak, 18331 Naples Street, stated she would like to see two rows of pine trees planted as a buffer from the development. in addition to the berming. She explained that the recommendation for berming along 183rd does nothing to buffer her property. Chair Cote noted that this issue can be taken into consideration when a development proposal for the site is reviewed. Ann Olson, 18363 Naples Street, requested that trees or a fence be installed to separate the residential from the business park. Dick Nelson, 18276 Kent Street, questioned what type of uses are permitted on the site. Scott indicated that a copy of the uses that are allowed in a business park will be mailed to him. There being no further comments from the public, Chair Cote closed the public hearing. Commissioner Kuester suggested condition NO.1 of staff's recommendations be modified to include the adjacent Naples Street residences.
