BACKGROUND:
The subject property is part of phase 2 of Jefferson Plaza. Phase 1 consists
of Home Depot, Jack in the Box and IHOP to the east and south. Phase 2 is
approximately seven acres in size and consists of 990 Only, Smart and Final
and additional retail area totaling approximately 72,000 square feet. The
two major users have opened under a temporary Certificate of Occupancy.
Landscaping of portions of the site remain to be done.
The subject parcel, consisting of approximately 6.95 acres, was created in
1998 under Parcel Map 28573. That map created four parcels. The subject
parcel is somewhat rectangular in shape and located adjacent to the
Whitewater Storm Channel, with a narrow flag access to Highway 1 1 1 along
its east boundary. The subject parcel includes a 100' deep strip of land
along the entire north length of the boundary that has an easement granted
over it to CVWD for use as part of the Whitewater River Storm Channel.
Three additional parcels from that map front on Highway 111 with two of
the lots developed with Jack in the Box and IHOP. The third lot in the center
is currently vacant.
PROJECT REQUEST:
The applicant is proposing to divide the subject parcel into two parcels.
Parcel 1 is proposed to be 4.44 acres and will contain Smart and Final, all
eight shop building spaces and associated required the parking (located
immediately in front, to the side and behind the buildings). Parcel 2 will be
2.5 acres in size and contain the 990 Only store and its required parking.
The purpose of this map is to allow sales or financing of the individual
parcels and improvements.
PUBLIC NOTICE:
This map application was advertised in the Desert Sun newspaper on
December 10, 2005. All property owners within 500 feet of the site were
