What: PC-11020, a rezoning of about 14 acres at 9128 Southeastern Avenue from AA to R1ZL (small-lot single-family), with the companion preliminary plat of Eastern Trails (about 90 lots) south of Southeast 89th Street.
Where it stands: both recommended for approval on October 22 after a nearby landowner raised drainage and traffic concerns.

A neighboring landowner to the south said drainage onto his pond changed after the adjacent Sweetwater addition, that construction sediment fouled his pond, and that Southeastern Avenue traffic already backs up southbound; he asked for more detention, a greenbelt on the south side and better common-area maintenance.
The applicant's engineer said the new drainage ordinance means the site must handle water arriving from other properties and release no more than today, and a revised plat has one access stub north and one south. Commissioners said HOAs maintain common areas poorly and several disliked R1ZL but approved reluctantly.
Conditions: the applicant agreed to all the plat TEs plus a new one requiring cedar-capped fencing with brick columns on 40-foot centers along the arterial, maintained by the HOA.
