Consider an ordinance to approve the final Planned Area Development 79 - 2 Plan for, Orchard Court (first consideration). Comment: The City Council had previously approved the final planned area develop- ment'plan for`'the subject addition, but there apparently was an error in the legal description contained in that ordinance (see attachedletter from Mr. Robert Downer). To rectify the error, the Council should reconsider and adopt, the ordinance with the proper legal description. i Action: d.'� ,/ )%Cit P (P IJJ4, . A 1)n..Ju. R. C' 9,A 71D d. Consider- resolution to approve the preliminary plat of Oakes Meadow Addition,(5-7744). Comment: The'Planningand Zoning Commission, at a'regular meeting 'held on October d 2, 1977, recommended by a 5-0 vote approval of the subject subdivision { located 'north of 'Muscatine Avenue and west of Southlawn Drive. This recommendation was not entirely consistent with the staff's recommendation ! - presented in a staff report dated October 6, 1977, which was attached to the agenda of. January 31, 1978. The staff has recommended that con- j tinuity be provided from Muscatine Avenue to Meadow Street at Friendship Street in lieu of the two near right angle turns proposed within the subdivision. Specifically, as Meadow Street and Brookside Drive are i the only streets which' cross Ralston Creek between Frist Avenue and Y I I proposed Scott Boulevard on the east, the staff is of, the opinion that a more direct access to the neighborhood should be provided via a" reversed curve. ! This item was deferred from the agenda of January 31, 1978, to enable the Planning and Zoning Commission to review the proposal for temporary access to this subdivision. The Planning and Zoning Commission is proposing to hold a short formal meeting Monday night to consider: this item to expedite approval of the subdivision by the City Council at Tuesday night's formal meeting. �, / 1 1 ' to%>2,-.��,'./' ;0 �.i^r-r.,a .-r,+, rJ' '.9�,, /'. 0),)Z Action: <r�ui✓ j,6�a l�t�llnJ�.al,n!¢. r, 1. , , no. ,�.% :.. c, ! , �,�� ' �•, C/.i 1�1' �C it �r(I hr/7 .I /r/ i/I'rl.,l /.)-!/.

Consider resolution approving the preliminary and final Large Scale Non -Residential Development Plan of Plamore Lanes Addition (S-7758)., Comment: The Planning and Zoning Commission, at a, regular meeting held on January 19, 1978,'recommended 'by a 4-2 vote approval of the subject plan contingent upon (1) that a signed statement of intent from the applicant be provided,' and (2) that the signatures of the utility companies be provided. This recommendation is consistent with ',the staff's recommendation presented in a staff report dated Janury 19, 1978, which was attached to the agenda - of January 31, 1978. The Council should be informed that because of a vote loophole in the Tree Regulations (see memorandum from the City Attorney attached to the staff report), this development does not have to comply with the Tree Regulations.
