Summary Explanation/Background
THE RESILIENT ENVIRONMENT DEPARTMENT AND THE URBAN PLANNING DIVISION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION, subject to staff recommendations and conditions.
This plat is located on 41.4 acres on the southwest corner of Southwest 184 Avenue and Griffin Road in the Town of Southwest Ranches. It is restricted to 16 single family detached units. The applicant is requesting to relocate access from Southwest 184 Avenue to Griffin Road. This request deletes three 50-foot openings and all associated roadway improvements on Southwest 184 Avenue, including required turn lanes, and provides access through a new 50-foot roadway connection onto Griffin Road.
Highway Construction and Engineering Division (HCED) has reviewed this request and recommends approval of the revised NVAL, subject to the construction of a new turn lane and driveway connection onto Griffin Road, as shown in Exhibit 5. HCED recommends deleting the improvements required by the previous Board action, on November 10, 2015, and also the Broward County fire protection requirements, since this plat now receives fire protection from the Town of Southwest Ranches.
The Development Review Report is attached, (as Exhibit 1).
