Preliminary Plat of Countryside 3rd Addition | | |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested:
Adopt Resolution R2024-030, approving the Preliminary Plat of Countryside 3rd Addition. | | |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
The Planning Commission reviewed this item at their March 7, 2024 meeting and by a unanimous vote, recommended approval as proposed. | | |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
Donnay Homes, Inc., applicant, and Link Construction Inc., property owner, have applied for a preliminary plat of property located south of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 16/17th Avenue and east of CSAH 15/Marystown Road as identified in the attached legal description and aerial map/plat plan.
The property consists of approx. 5.44 acres and was recently annexed from Jackson Township, zoned Urban Residential (R-1B) Zone, and granted MUSA (Metropolitan Urban Service Area status). The preliminary plat plan identifies 17 single family residential lots on the extension of Lusitano Street. Lusitano would end in a temporary cul-de-sac, with the road to be extended westerly in the future, connecting with a road system that connects Pinia Street from the north to 128th Street to the south.
The applicant’s plat would exceed 3.0 units/acre, with homes generally similar in size and design to those located to the north in the Countryside 2nd Addition. Development to the east is existing rural residential homes located within Jackson Township. There is one existing residence adjacent to the south, that was parceled off via a Minor Subdivision from the subject property. The applicant has provided a narrative that further describes their proposed development.
City and SPU staff have spent considerable time discussing details of this project with the applicant. City Engineering has provided a memorandum listing their conditions should this application be approved, and both Engineering and SPU have provided redline comments on the plans, identifying changes necessary should this plat be approved.
