Planning Director Clayton Comstock presented a proposed update to the City Code
related to cross access and property access. Mr. Comstock stated the primary
issues are driveway and property access, reserve strips of property, and
development constraints on redeveloping property. Mr. Comstock stated some
concerns are limited traffic flow between lots to intersection or traffic signals, number
of driveways on major roads, and potential barrier for development and
redevelopment. Mr. Comstock stated property access is a note of concern if a small
strip of land is reserved that intentionally blocks access to public facilities resulting in
a fragmentary and piecemeal development pattern. Mr. Comstock provided potential
standards for the Commission.
Commissioner Sarah Olvey and Chairman Welborn gave support to amending the
ordinance to limit small strips of land.
Ex-Officio Kelvin Deupree and Mr. Comstock discussed the maintenance
