SUBJECT: Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5
Final Subdivision Plan
Project# 97-001
ISSUE:
Should the Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Final Subdivision Plan for Prairie Lake
Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5?
BACKGROUND:
Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 (aka Prairie Lake Village) will include a total of 70
single family residential lots, located on the east side of Clarke Road, just north of Hackney
Prairie Road. The subdivision will also include one commercial lot (4.34 acres) to be located at
the northeast corner of Clarke Road and Hackney Prairie Road. The commercial lot is not being
developed at this time.
The Preliminary Subdivision Plan for Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 was approved by
the City Commission on August 19, 1997. A Comprehensive Plan Amendment was adopted last
fall for the residential portion of Phase 5 which changed its Future Land Use designation from
Commercial to Single Family Residential. A Zoning Map Amendment was also adopted which
changed its zoning from C-1 to R-1-A.
DISCUSSION:
Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 will have three points of access - one from the adjacent
Prairie Lake Subdivision(Phase 1) to the north, one from Hackney Prairie Road to the south, and
one from the Remington Oaks subdivision to the east. The site is currently vacant and covered

with a large number of trees (mostly oaks), some of them rather large. During review of the Final
Subdivision Plans, Staff has done everything possible to ensure that as many trees as possible will
be preserved in this subdivision. General Note # 10 clearly indicates that tree removal will be
limited to clearing of road right-of-way and retention areas as detailed in the Final Subdivision
Plans.
The attached Final Subdivision Plan for Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 was reviewed
by the Development Review Committee (DRC) on February 4, 1998. The Committee voted
unanimously to recommend approval of the Final Subdivision Plan. All concerns of City Staff and
our consultants have been satisfactorily addressed in these plans.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING AND RECOMMENDATION:
On February 10, 1998, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered the Final Subdivision
Plan for Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 on its Consent Agenda. During the
proceedings the developer's representative was present and answered a few questions asked by
the Commission. After a very brief discussion, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
unanimously to recommend approval of all items on the Consent Agenda, including the Final
Subdivision Plan for Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5, in accordance with staff s
recommendation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the recommendations of the DRC and the Planning and Zoning Commission, Staff
respectfully recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners approve the Final
Subdivision Plan for Prairie Lake Subdivision, Phases 3, 4 & 5 as date stamped received by
the City on February 10, 1998.
