Commission backs Plymouth Harbor subdivision plan; reserves right‑of‑way for future widening
Summary
The commission recommended approval of the Plymouth Harbor major development plan for 86 single‑family units. The plan sets aside about 36% open space (above the 20% minimum), includes turn lanes and a 30‑foot right‑of‑way dedication for future road widening along Plymouth‑Sorrento Road.
The Planning and Zoning Commission on April 8 recommended approval of the Plymouth Harbor major development plan, which proposes 86 single‑family dwellings on property west of Plymouth‑Sorrento Road north of Bailey Hill Road.
Planning manager Bobby Howe described the proposal and noted the future land‑use designation is residential low suburban. The applicant proposes a density of 2.16 dwelling units per acre, under the 3.5 units/acre maximum for the designation, and the plan sets aside about 36% of the site as open space. Howe said the open space includes the stormwater retention area, a playground and a dog park.
The plan shows a left‑turn lane for northbound traffic and a right‑turn lane for southbound traffic into the subdivision; a 30‑foot right‑of‑way dedication along Plymouth‑Sorrento Road is reserved for future widening. The Development Review Committee recommended approval.
Commissioner Dooney moved to recommend approval subject to the findings and staff exhibits; Commissioner Ryan seconded and the motion carried. Staff will forward the recommendation to city council for final action.
