The Technical Committee recommends the following changes to the proposed Subdivision Ordinance: SECTION 24033-C/ After the phrase, "City's extraterritorial jurisdiction", add the 26033-E phrase "as depicted on the City's most recent base map." 26010 Behind the phrase "the final plat shall conform to the approved construction plans and plat.", add a sentence that reads, "If the proposed land uses as shown on the final plat are inconsistent with the comprehensive plan as adopted by the City, the final plat shall not be accepted for review or action by the City."

We need to have added a paragraph setting forth the procedure for the recording of the final plat. The context of the plat should include a procedure for notification of the owner when the plat is to be submitted to the county for review and approval of those sites in the E.T.J. 27020 In the last paragraph, delete the sentence that begins "The com- mission and/or council.... public approval of a detailed develop- ment plan." 27040-A4 The section reading "Direction of proposed drainage provided,..." revise the sentence to read, "Indication of proposed modifications to existing site drainage and directions of proposed drainage in- dicating compliance with the approved final plat." 27040- Revise to read "Lot dimensions; square footage, and percent of All impervious coverage by proposed improvements."

Such requests shall be supplied within thirty days of date of notification by the City. Approval of any such exten- sion request shall be automatic." Delete the statement, "not more than two renewals shall be ap- proved for any detail development plan." 27060-C To the phrase, "a detail development plan approval shall be sus- pended upon notification...", change the word "shall" to "may". To the sentence, "the commission shall hold a public hearing...", revise to read, "the commission may hold a public hearing within forty days if either party is not satisfied that the action trig- gering the notification, or steps required to correct such action, have not been taken." To the paragraph "Following the denial of detail development plan ....one year from the date of denial of revocation.", delete the paragraph entirely. 28000 All actions imposed upon the City Council should be changed to read, "actions of the City." 28020 The last sentence in the paragraph, delete the sentence entirely. 28040 Note that none of the forms specified as Appendix A, B, or C, are attached to the ordinance.

The Dir- ector of Public Works shall issue his report within five working days of the date of notification by the developer that the im- provements have been completed. The Director of Public Works shall have five working days to complete his inspection upon no- tification by the developer." Revise to read, "Any and all other provisions identified in the platting process have been satisfied. 28080 To the phrase, "as determined by the City Engineer.", change that to read, "as'determined by the Director of Public Works or his appointees." 28080-B Revise to read, "The City shall not release a surety instrument unless and until all the conditions of Section 28070 are met."

Box 3 Georgetown, Texas 78627 863-2706 30 December, 1986 Mr. Ercel Brashear, Chairman Subdivision Ordinance Tech. Subcommittee Georgetown, Texas Re: Ordinance Draft Activity Dear Ercel, Subsequent to our lengthy discussions during the last evening subject session, I am compelled to call the following facts to the attention of our subcommittee: 1) Technical specifications are quite basic to the document that we are drafting. 2) Watershed and drainage ordinances are also basic to our efforts to assist in providing the City with a workable draft. 3) Obviously, we are required to recommend the draft without the benefit of said Technical Specifications and ordinances. 4) I suggest that when we find text based on one of the above omissions or inadequacies, we add appropriate symbols to the right margin (TS, W, D). 5) An explanation in the Ordinance Footnotes should clearly explain this procedure. 6) Another Footnote should void requirements in the text which are not clearly based on valid specification or ordinance. Respectfully, Dan Shanahan, P.E.
