The City of Atlantic’s Planning and Zoning Commission will meet 5:30-p.m. Tuesday in the City Council’s Chambers, at City Hall. On their agenda, is a review of the Washington Elementary School Parking Lot site plan, which is actually an amendment to the original site plan. And, the Commission will review and discuss their preferred street entrance for a possible, future housing subdivision near Teresa Drive.

The abutting property owners have been invited to attend the meeting, as they would be most affected by a proposal from Jim Comes to have a residential housing subdivision on 28.56 acres of land he owns immediately west of Teresa Drive. The favored option, according to Zoning Administrator John Lund, would be to take the lot at 1511 Teresa Drive, which Comes owns, and dedicate it to the street right-of-way. That would connect Teresa Drive with the new street that would serve the Comes’ in the new subdivision.

It would also increase daily traffic flow, and effectively turn the properties to the north and south into street corner lots, instead of interior lots. Interior side yard setbacks would become street yard setbacks, with more restrictive development standards.
