MEL-OAK ESTATES PHASE 4 - PRELIMINARY PLAN Marvin Collins presented for consideration of approval a preliminary plan for the Mel-Oak Estates Phase 4 Subdivision. The property is located in Chapel Hill Township. Six lots are proposed, each approximately 40,000 square feet. The property is. located in the Rural Buffer which presently requires a two acre minimum lot size. The developer is requesting approval of the six-lot design since Mel~Oaks has been an on-going subdivision. The 8.3 acre tract is zoned R-1 and located in the University Lake Watershed. The Planning Board recommended approval of the proposed six-lot subdivision because they felt that phase 4 was a continuation of a previous subdivision and to require two acre lots at this time would create an inconsistency within that development. Collins made reference to the policy adopted by the Board on October 3 and indicated that the Planning Board suggested that the Board -; alter the policy to allow for any phased development that had been planned in phases to be completed under the old standard of one acre lot size. This would insure consistency within those developments. The Planning'`'=-~~ Board recommended approval with the attachment of four conditions. After ensued discussion, it was decided that the policy would be revised to include those phased developments which have received in part preliminary plan approval -that are phased and at least one phase has received preliminary plat approval and where the sketch plan has been approved for the entire project. A revised policy will be presented at the November 18 meeting. This item was postponed until November 18. 8.
