Background
In February of 2015, the applicant received approval of a preliminary plat from the City Council for a subdivision known as Springbrook Addition that includes approximately 20 acres and 49 lots. Since that date, the developer has not made any progress towards submitting the final plat for this property. At this time the applicant would like to obtain a one year extension on the preliminary plat approval.
The plat extension does not change any conditions of the plat other than updating some of the development fee numbers. The only thing the extension does is allow the property owners more time.
If the extension is approved by the City Council the final plat will need to be submitted for City approval prior the expiration of the one year extension.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
