Again, the Commission is faced with the decision of whether or not to waive the Rural Development Standards for a rural subdivision. An annexation policy, a means by which to clearly determine those areas within the two mile extraterritorial area that may or may not be annexed, does not exist. It is critical that the Commission, within the near future, establish some type of guidelines by which to make these decisions. Regarding the subject subdivision, the Commission may wish to waive the provisions with regard to streets in the Rural Development Standards. The development lies entirely within Old Man's Creek watershed, a watershed which the Commission has previously considered as an area not likely to be annexed because of its difficulty in sewering and its being located west of the proposed Highway 218 bypass. As a matter of policy, the Commission has not required subdivisions within the Old Man's Creek watershed to meet the provisions of the City's Stormwater Management Ordinance. Until the Commission decides on a rational means by which to apply the Rural Development Standards the staff will recommend that the Standards be applied to all areas within the City's two mile extraterritorial control area with exception of stormwater management in Old Man's Creek watershed. RECOMMENDATION The staff recommends that action on the plat be deferred. The staff further recommends that upon revision of the plat incorporating the deficiencies and discrepancies noted below, the plat be approved and that stornwater management be waived. DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES 1. Lot lines should be extended to the center line of Rohret Road and dimensioned. 2. The angle of intersection for Meade Place with Rohret Road should be shown and radii indicated. 3. The right-of-way width for the turn -around should be consistent with that of the street, i.e., both to be sixty feet. 4. The streets do not comply with the Rural Design Standards, i.e., twenty- two B -B with six inches of concrete or eight inches of asphalt. 5. A fire rating should be established for the subdivision. 6. Prior to preliminary plat approval there should be a letter of trans- mittal from the appropriate fire protection district approving spacing, location, number of fire hydrants, size of water mains, pressure, etc. ATTACHMENTS 1.

ANCHOR STORE is an exterior perimeter department store or major merchandising center having direct access to a mall 6• but having all required exits independent of a mall. GROSS LEASABLE AREA is the total floor area designed for tenant occupancy and exclusive use. The area of tenant occupancy is measured from the center lines of joint par- titions to the outside of the tenant walls. All tenant areas, including areas used for storage, shall be included in calculating gross leasable area. MALL is a roofed or covered common pedestrian area within a covered mall building which serves as access for two or more tenants.

The occupant load permitted in any individual tenant space in a covered mall building shall be de- termined as required by Section 3301(d) of this Code. Exit require- ments for individual tenant spaces shall be based on the occupant load thus determined. The occupant load permitted for the covered mall building, assuming all portions, including individual tenant spaces and the mall to be occupied at the same time, shall be determined by dividing the gross leasable area by 30 for covered mall buildings containing up to 150,000 square feet of gross leasable area; by 40 for covered mall buildings & containing between 150,001 and 350,000 square feet of gross leasable area, and by 50 for covered mall buildings containing more than 350,000 square feet of gross leasable area. Exit requirements for the covered mall building shall be based on the occupant load thus determined. j ! The occupant load of anchor stores opening into the mall need not be included in computing the total number of occupants for the mall. t i (c) Number of Exits. Each individual tenant space in covered mall buildings shall be provided with the number of exits required by Sec- tion 3302(a) of this Code.

Required exits for anchor stores shall be provided independently from the mall exit system. The occupant load of anchor stores opening into the mall shall not be included in determining exit requirements for the mall. Malls shall not exit through anchor stores. Malls terminating at an anchor store where no other means of exit has been provided shall be considered as a dead end mall. (e) Distance to Exits. Within each individual tenant space in a covered mall building the maximum distance of travel from any point to an ex- terior exit door, horizontal exit, exit passageway, enclosed stairway or entrance to the mall shall not exceed 200 feet.
