2002/0477 Subdivision, Rendezvous (28110B/5) Flag Luxury Resorts

 

Deferred for:

i.                    submission of an Environmental Impact Assessment for the golf course development.

ii.                  submission of a Final Master Plan for the development that shows clearly the linkages and relationship between this current proposal and other features and land uses. For example, the submitted subdivision proposal shows a road network, which differs, from the last ‘master plan’ that was submitted. The Master Plan should include all land in ownership of Flag Luxury Properties or for which they are seeking to develop. For example, the LDCC has been advised that land to the west Block 28009B/12 may be forming part of the overall development.

 

 

iii.                submission of a project brief that clearly indicates (preferably in tabular format) the land use proposals including the acreage number of units etc for the project. For example, x acres of residential use providing Y dwellings.

 

In addition to the matters listed above the following details are also required for this proposed subdivision:

 

a)     payment of an additional EC$30 for ‘Lot 21’ which will be the ‘remainder’ i.e. rest of golf course development site.

b)     the application form and plan need amending accordingly to take account of a) above.

c)      submission in triplicate of a location plan (as highlighted on the application form).

d)     clear indication of extent of the following on an appropriate scaled plan of :

 

§         Rocky shoreline

§         Dune areas to the rear of the rocky shoreline

§         Coastal vegetation line.

§         Relationship of proposed lots and right of ways.

 

The LDCC note that there is a key opportunity as part of the overall golf course development to create a coastal path / walkway for public use along the southern site boundary. At the same time the established LDCC policy (which has been supported by Executive Council on appeals) is that all permanent built development (buildings, other structures, pools septic tanks etc) must be set back a minimum of 75 feet from the vegetation line on rocky shorelines. Therefore the allocation of land, possibly as a single lot, for the purpose of a coastal path is actively encouraged.

 

 

 

e)     The application indicates 12 of the 20 proposed lots are larger than the ½ acre size that is permitted under the Alien Land Act. Written details of justification for this should be submitted as part of this application.      Given  the required setback stated in ‘d’ above the alterations may reduce the actual lot sizes for lots 13 to 20 inclusive.

f)        The creation of triple and double frontage lots is not encouraged by the LDCC. The current application has Lot 8 being triple fronted and lot 7 is double fronted. It is difficult to assess whether further lots will be similarly affected, as the wider road network has not been shown.

g)     The width of the proposed right of way and, how this relates to other roads in the development need to be clearly indicated on the application.
