Comprehensive Plan: 

Within Existing Urban Service Area: Yes

Within Urban Service Area 2035: Yes

Future Land Use Designation: Residential General (RG)

Relevant Goals to be considered in this Case: Strengthen the Existing Built Environment.  

The proposed final plat would comply with the Davenport +2035 proposed land use section.

Zoning: R-3 Single-Family and Two-Family Residential District. 

Technical Review: 

Streets: The subdivision would have access via Jersey Ridge Road and East 61st Street. At a future date, Jersey Ridge Road will be re-graded for the installation of sidewalks. The grading plan should take this into consideration in order to minimize future disruption to the properties abutting Jersey Ridge Road. 

Storm Water: The R-3 District permits a maximum impervious surface of 60% for each lot. The development of the property shall comply with the City's stormwater requirements.  

Sanitary Sewer: Sanitary sewers will be extended from existing infrastructure to serve this subdivision. Additional storm and sanitary sewer easements shall be required based on preliminary engineering of conceptual plans including service drainage of the property to the west. 

Other Utilities: Other normal utility services are available.

Public Input:

No Public Hearing is required for a preliminary plat.
