The 0.33-acre subject property is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of NE 4th Street and NE 3rd Avenue. The site is zoned Central Business District (CBD-RC) in the Railroad Corridor Sub-district and has a Central Core (CC) Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Designation. The Site Plan was approved with a 5-0 vote. The resulting site plan is required to be platted.

Per LDR Section 2.4.5(J)(3)(b), a Major Plat must be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board. The Planning and Zoning Board must certify that the final plat is in compliance with the approved preliminary plat. On May 20, 2019, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 that the final plat was in compliance with the approved preliminary plat.
The Plat request is to subdivide two existing lots into five lots by a Major Plat. Lots 1-5 are proposed residential lots reserved for the owner of the development, its successors or assigns, for private purposes as allowed in accordance with the zoning regulations of City.
Tract A is alleyway dedication; Tract B is right-of-way dedication and corner clip dedication at the intersection of NE 3rd Avenue and NE 4th Street. Tract C is dedicated for ingress and egress and utility purposes. In addition, there is a pedestrian clear zone easement along NE 4th Street, as well as general utility and drainage easements dedicated via this plat.
