MOTION APPROVED. Public Hearing: PL2008-001, FP2008-001 Preliminary Plat of NORTHWEST QUADRANT EAST and Final Plat of NORTHWEST QUADRANT EAST FIRST ADDITION The City is requesting Preliminary Plat approval to be known as NORTHWEST QUADRANT EAST. The area included in the preliminary plat is within the Northwest Quadrant, specifically on the east side of Old Highway 8 NW, north of 1-694, west of I - 35W, and south of the Butcher's Spur rail line. Additionally, the City is requesting approval of a Final Plat to be known as NORTHWEST QUADRANT EAST FIRST ADDITION. The area included in the final plat is often referred to as Block A on the concept plans and consists of approximately 5 acres at the southwest corner of the Preliminary Plat of NORTHWEST QUADRANT EAST. The final plat for Block A will include the right-of-way of the proposed future ring road. Block A will be bound by Old Highway 8 NW on the west side, I-694 on the south side, the centerline of the existing MCES sewer line on the east side and the future ring road on the north side. The Planning Commission is being asked to consider this preliminary and final plat simultaneously in an effort to be prepared for development of Block A to a potential hotel developer. Rather than merely include Block A in the preliminary and final plat, all of the property south of the Butcher's Spur and east of Old Highway 8 NW was included in the preliminary plat. This allows approval of only the City Council on future final plats of the remaining property. Also, having the property preliminarily platted puts the City in a much better negotiating position with prospective developers. Motion by Baker, second by O'Brien to CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. 1* 5 ayes, 0 nays. MOTION APPROVED.
