No. 23-94 MEMORANDUM TO: Diane Dominguez, Director of Planning & Zoning FROM: Alison MacGregor Harty, City Clerk~ SUBJECT: Resolution Nos, 22-94 ~ 23-94 (Abandonment of Riqh~-of-Way and Easements within The Groves of Delray) DATE: March 11, 1996 The referenced resolutions were approved by Commission on 3/8/94, with the condition that they would not become effective nor be recorded until the plat for The Groves was recorded. On April 26, 1994, I gave certified copies of the resolutions to Steve Taylor so the applicant/developer could record them at the same time the plat was recorded. The original recorded documents were to be returned to me. Before Steve left, he and I reviewed various files to make sure the loose ends were tied up. The only exception we found was that the recorded documents (#22-94 & 23-94) had never been returned. I know Steve tried to contact the applicant, but apparently he never got a response or just ran out of time before getting back to me. Would you please check your project file to see if the recorded documents ever came in, or if they can be obtained from the applicant? I need the recording information before I can close out my files. Please contact Celeste McDonough with any information you may have on these resolutions. Thank you.

BACKGROUND: On November 4, 1990 the City Commission denied a site plan request from The Groves to create a low income housing development. In October, 1991, a new site plan was submitted to conform with the recently approved Land Development Regulations. This new site plan proposed multi-family units designed for senior citizen housing. On February 12, 1992 a rezoning request for six lots located within the Woods of Southridge Subdivision from R-lA (Single Family) to RM (Multiple Family Residential) was approved in order to combine these lots with the original land area of The Groves. A basic site plan for the development was approved by SPRAB (Site Plan Review and Appearance Board) on February 19, 1992. On February 25, 1992 the City Commission appealed SPRAB's approval of The Groves basic site plan. On March 24, 1992 the City Commission ratified SPRAB's decision and approved the basic site plan for The Groves. On December 20, 1993 the Planning and Zoning Board approved the preliminary plat for The Groves. On January 12, 1994 SPRAB approved the final site plan, landscape plan, and elevations for The Groves. This final site plan addressed the conditions that were set forth with the approval of the basic site plan in March, 1992.
