. Although no specific development plan exists at this time, a conceptual plan is attached which identifies a 12 acre parcel south of 193rd Street showing a potential professional office park development. Of this 12 acre parcel, a 1 acre parcel was purchased and is being developed as a SuperAmerica gas/convenience store operation. Additionally, a portion of the remaining 11 acres adjacent to the SuperAmerica site has been graded to accommodate a future retail strip center development. This graded area was under previous ownership, had previous plat "approval and had been identified for a municipal water and sewer project. ,. This 12 acre parcel consists of a west half of o~en~land and an east half of Oak woods. A large portion of the trees are anticipated to be removed to accomplish proper site grading. Steep wooded ridges border the east boundary of this parcel. The slopes will retain their natural vegetation to the top of the ridges to provide the maximum height for the screening of the commercial site to the residential site on the east. This will also aid in the protection of the slopes from erosion and protect the ponds at the bottom of the slopes. One exception will be a city storm sewer line which will cut diagonally down the slope to protect the vegetation and maintain the screening effect of the vegetation. The other portion of potential commercial development lies no~th of 193rd Street and adj acent to an existing 14 acre commercial plat known as Hillside Crossing. This future area consists of approximately 25 acres and is anticipated to be rezoned to Highway Commercial. It is mostly wooded and has an existing residence on it. It is anticipated that most of the trees will be removed to accommodate the grading necessary for its proper development. . In summary, both of these sites will use similar construction practices as previously mentioned in the Residential section, including but not limited to: Best Management Practices during construction for sediment and erosion control, measures to control Oak Wilt, and permanent sediment and erosion control measures. The commercial and residential phases of this development will be designed to balance the dirt; therefore, there will be no waste dirt that would need to be removed from the site. 8.
