PREVIOUS RELATED ACTIONS:

The Mayor and Council reviewed and approved Comprehensive Planned Development Concept Application CPD95-0002, covering development on the King Farm site, on July 18, 1996.  Final Record Plat Application PLT98-0132 approved Block K and some of the streets surrounding it.  The block layout for this property was approved by the Planning Commission with Comprehensive Planned Development Detailed Application CPD99-002V.

STAFF COMMENTS:

There are only minor adjustments to the lots made by these plats.  Some of the lot sizes have been reduced slightly in size in order to widen Lawson Way (a private street) by a foot and a half.  Others have had additional Public Utility Easements added.  All of the lots have been renumbered, even though some have not been altered, in order to retain a consistent numbering pattern among adjoining lots.

1. That the Plat be revised to make modifications/additions, as identified on Planning Commission Exhibit “A” (in Planning Division file).

2. That the Final Plat be submitted in an appropriate electronic format as specified in Section 25-782(c), (d) and (e) of the City of Rockville Zoning Ordinance.
