ITEM SUMMARY:
Jim Muccianti, owner a vacant 3.88 acre lot in the Carolina Acres industrial subdivision just north of
Hawthorne Boulevard in the M Manufacturing District, is requesting approval of a Temporary
Access/Construction Easement over the City-owned detention basin lot within the industrial park. The
construction easement is needed to grant the owner access to the City property to perform
modifications to the basin. The proposed work includes re-grading the top of the berm and the overflow
weir to raise the overflow elevation 0.3 feet which will add 2.126 acre-feet of storage to the basin. By
raising the overflow elevation of this detention basin, the total detention volume of the basin increases.
This is necessary to allow for the future development of undeveloped parcels in the subdivision, such
as Mr. Muccianti’s. Without a modification to the existing detention basin, development of the vacant
parcels becomes difficult.
Staff has reviewed the submitted plans for this work and has approved a site development permit for
this construction. A temporary access/construction easement has been prepared by staff that will allow
access for the work to be performed. Once the work has been completed the temporary easement will
cease.
ACTION PROPOSED:
Discuss and recommend approval of the proposed Temporary Access/Construction Easement.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
Development Committee members voted unanimously (6-0) is support of the petitioner's request for a
Temporary Access/Construction Easement.
