Mayor Higgs inquired on the correction of city limits on the preliminary plat. Joe Iliff indicated that on the Planning & Zoning Commission’s recommendation they approved the preliminary plat to show the correct city limits along the west side of Interstate 35 and the west side of the BNSF railroad tracts. Mr. Iliff advised this was one of the recommendations. It will be reflected on the final plat. The Planning & Zoning approved the preliminary plat unanimously. Mr. Iliff continued with a discussion concerning the following issues: The preliminary plat will provide for the extension of View Road east from Interstate 35. The property is being subdivided into three lots. It will include an area on the northeast corner for an onsite storm water detention pond. The applicant is planning to revise the location of the 100-year floodplain within the boundaries of the plat. Mr. Iliff explained the applicant can final plat each individual lot as it is sold or he could final plat the entire area as indicated on the preliminary plat. He proceeded to discuss the onsite storm water detention area which is separate from the lots. The pond will service all three properties and all the properties will be responsible for maintenance. Councilman Muir indicated that if the property is owned by the same person it is not a problem. He then asked if it is held by three different people would there be an owner association agreement to make sure the detention pond is maintained. Mr. Iliff indicated there would be a property owner’s association where the detention pond would be under common maintenance of all the owners. Motion was made by Council Patton to approve the preliminary plat of the Skiles’ property, 137.26 acres, located East of Interstate 35 on View Road. Seconded by Councilman Garza.
