Subject
The Lakes Apartment - Variance to The Subdivision Regulations
Initiator
Department of Engineering
Recommendation
Approval is requested of a variance to the Subdivision Regulations to allow a \n \n perpetual access easement from The Lakes Apartments Section Four to Warm \n \n Springs Road (A deeded Public Street), in lieu of the required 25' frontage to \n \n a deeded public street.
Approval
Approved
Background
The Woodruff Family owns The Lakes Apartments located at 4343 Warm Springs

Road. The development of Phase Four, The Lakes Apartment, creates a land locked

parcel without lot frontage to a public street. The financial lender that

provides the loan for this development requires that each phase of the

apartments be treated as a separate parcel with a separate single purpose

entity, set up for the Woodruff Family. (see attached letter dated August 23,

2004)
Analysis
The Engineering Department reviewed the request and recommends approval of the

variance based on the concept of being one part of the existing Lakes Apartment

Complex.
Financial Considerations
There is no cost to the City.
Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement
Legal Considerations
A variance of the Subdivision Regulations requires Council approval.
Recommendations/ Actions
Approve the variance to the Subdivision Regulations for The Lakes Apartment

Complex
