HomeMy WebLinkAbout4B - Cardinal Ridge SU070 AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: INTRODUCTION: STAFF AGENDA REPORT CONSENT (b) DEB GARROSS, DRC COORDINATOR CONSIDER REQUEST TO EXTEND FILING DEADLINE FOR THE PLAT OF CARDINAL RIDGE FIRST ADDITION. DECEMBER 6,1993 On November 16, 1993, staff received a letter from James W. Johnston requesting the City Council to grant an extension for filing the final plat of Cardinal Ridge First Addition with Scott County. The applicant is in the process of resolving title issues related to the property and believes that they will be resolved prior to the plat expiration date of December 18, 1993 but requests a 45 day extension in the event that issues cannot be resolved. Subdivision Ordinance 87-10, Section 6-3-4 (G) permits the City Council to grant up to Qne, sixty day extension for the filing of a final plat with Scott County: "The subdivider has sixty days from the date of final approval to record the final plat and relevant documents with Scott County. Any final plats that are not filed within sixty days of final plat approval shall become null and void. The Council may extend the recording time for sixty days upon written request by the subdivider or for other good cause as determined by the City Council. " The final plat of Cardinal Ridge First Addition was approved on October 18, 1993 via Resolution 93-84 and will expire on December 18, 1993. The applicant has requested a 45 day extension for filing the final plat with Scott County. Staff has no objection to the extension request and recommends that the City Council grant a maximum 60 day extension to February 18, 1994. Please note that there is no gain to the developer nor City if the plat is allowed to expire. The applicant can file another final plat, consistent with the preliminary plat approval. The result of not granting an extension would be that another hearing before the City Council would need be scheduled for final plat approval requiring the payment of an additional final plat fee of $5.00 dollars per lot. The consequence of allowing the plat to expire would interrupt the City planned extension of fish Point Road and installation of utilities.

Because of the interconnection of these negotiations with our Phase I improvements and platting, we do not want any short delays therefrom to void our 60-day final plat approval, which expires on December 18. This letter may be premature, but because the Council meets on December 6 and then not again until December 20, we are hereby requesting a 45-day extension of plat filing to February I, 1994. We hopefully won't need this, but we would rather be safe than sorry. Thank you for your cooperation and assistance. Planners .
