Background
The owners of this 5-acre parcel just south of Maricara Park are proposing to subdivide the property to make 18 lots for single family homes. A new public street will stem from the cul de sac on SW 25th and connect to the stub of SW 26th in Arnold Woods subdivision.
The zoning is R10 (residential 10,000 square feet) with an Ec (Environmental Conservation) overlay on the drainage area on the west. City code allows some development in Ec Zones.
The preliminary site plan under discussion at this meeting is proposing to place all of the property which is under the Ec Zone into a separate tract and to develop the rest of the property as a Planned Development. This means that some lots are smaller than would be allowed in a regular R10 subdivision and internal setbacks are reduced, but the Ec Zone would be undisturbed.
This property is close to the northern border of ACNA and it is very close to neighboring Marshall Park and Markham neighborhoods.
