Pizza Hut parking‑lot paving remains tabled after staff finds drainage issues

The Planning Commission left on the table a site plan matter concerning a newly paved Pizza Hut parking lot that was completed without prior city permits or plan commission review.

Staff reported the paving project was done "at developer's risk" and that initial review shows the new surface is diverting stormwater onto adjoining parcels. The contractor submitted contour plans after the previous meeting; staff and the contractor agreed there are drainage issues that must be corrected. Because the paving altered grade and elevations without prior approval, the developer will be required to provide a site‑specific stormwater plan and address contour/elevation changes before the commission will take action.

The commission did not remove the item from the table; staff said they will continue to work with the contractor and bring a resolution back as a future agenda item. A commissioner noted that if the item remains on the table and is not brought back, it would eventually die, but staff said they expect to return it as a new agenda item once outstanding contour and drainage issues are resolved.
