Summary
The Planning Commission recommended final plat approval for Eagle Commercial Lots 4 and 5; staff noted required underground utilities, sidewalks along Hacks Cross frontage and stormwater approvals.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of a final plat to divide a 6.41‑acre parcel on the west side of Hacks Cross Road into two commercial lots (Lots 4 and 5).
Staff said the property is zoned C‑2 (Highway Commercial) and that utilities — including a 16‑inch water main, gas main and sewer easements — are already in the Hacks Cross corridor. A conditional use permit granted by the Board of Adjustment in May 2025 allows a potential outdoor contractor storage yard on proposed Lot 5, with a condition that Lot 5 be interconnected with Lot 4 for cross‑access.
Staff recommended that utilities be placed underground and that the developer construct sidewalks along Hacks Cross Road. Stormwater improvements must be approved by the city engineer and the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. The planning commission approved the final plat subject to staff conditions; the applicant, Bob Farley of Farley Surveying, was present and did not oppose the conditions.
If the Board of Mayor and Aldermen approves and the plat is recorded, the lots can be sold or built upon in accordance with city regulations.
