HALL COUNTY HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT 2900 WEST 2nd ST,GRAND ISLAND,NE 68803-5263 �E` www.hallcountyne.gov PHONE:(308)385-5126 FAX:(308)381-6486 .1.40 Steven P.Riehle,P.E. County Engineer/Highway Superintendent stever @hallcountyne.gov .i;: r September 18, 2018 Summary of County Board Agenda Item Discussion and possible action on request for an additional residential driveway access to Webb Road for Lot#3 of Prairie Creek Meadows Subdivision. Background The property east of Webb Road and south of One R Road was subdivided as Prairie Creek Meadows Subdivision as a Planned Unit Development. There are advantages to a developer with a Planned Unit Development, but there are also restrictions placed upon the developer. Paragraph 1 of the Subdivision Agreement reads as follows: "Planned Unit Development Zone. This subdivision is designated as a Planned Unit Development Zone and shall be regulated in accordance with the Hall County Zoning Resolution. A Development Plan as shown on the Final Plat for Prairie Creek Meadows Subdivision as filed with the Hall County Register of Deeds. Any amendments to such Development Plan shall be approved by Hall County in accordance with the Hall County Zoning and Subdivision Regulations. Paragraph 8 of the Subdivision Agreement reads as follows: Driveway Access. Vehicular access from the lots shall only be permitted onto Webb Road as indicated on the Plat. No access from Lot One (1) onto One —R Road. Each lot has access onto Webb Road, maintenance, including snow removal, of access easements between the road and the property are the responsibility of the property owners. The development has large lots with limited access to Webb Road to minimize the impact that the development could have on the safety of Webb Road. The driveway access is shared between Lots# 1, 2 & 3 as part of that effort to minimize the number of driveways. Discussion Matt&Amy Oliver purchased Lot# 3 and are in the process of building a residential home on the lot. The Oliver's have requested that the driveway access to their lot be somewhere closer to the center of their lot because the shape of Lot # 3 places the shared driveway at the far northwest corner of the lot. A traffic engineering review of the area has been conducted that considered the traffic impact of an additional residential driveway access along Webb Road. While one additional residential driveway access to Webb Road will have a minor impact on the safety of Webb Road, there is a potential for additional driveway requests if this one is approved.
