PROJECT NUMBER

BPC1610-006

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Dewey Engineering requests approval of a revised preliminary plan for the Ragsdale Property, located on the west side of Ragsdale Road.

The proposed revised plan shows a total of 71 lots. Please note that the submitted R-2 concept plan showed 70 lots. The OSRD Development Plan, which remains valid shows 76 lots.

The revised plan shows six less lots that shown on the approved OSRD development plan.

The developer has attempted to come to an agreement with the owner of the historic Fly log house, for over 18 months in an effort to bring the house back on to the property but has had no success. The house was removed in May 2015

The developer’s representative Mr. Tom White, provided a summary of his efforts to the Board of Commissioners at their April 6^th briefing.

The developer was obligated to sell the owner of the house approximately 3.02 acres within the project to the originals owner. The negotiations continued for 15 months, each time the agreement was discussed between the parties the terms changed. The developer has been unable to compel the previous owner of the property to move the house back. The intent of the briefing was for the Board to hear from the developer as to the status of the project.

The original owner had intended to rebuild the cabin to serve as a family retreat, adding bathrooms, bedrooms and a kitchen. The cabin was to be an accessory structure, subordinate to a primary structure.

It has become apparent that the previous owner will not be moving the log structure back onto the property.

As noted above the City Commission has been briefed. Additionally, staff also briefed the Historic Commission at their meeting of May 19.

In January 2017 the developer had proposed a rezoning of approximately 3 acres to AR to provide a tract to place the Fly house, construct a principal structure and allow for an additional accessory structure. The proposal was deferred by the developer as a result of communications with the former owner.
