A landowner applied to split two existing parcels near Decatur into five lots; county planning staff presented the two related minor plats to commissioners. The parcels lie near 13 Road East/300 East and 550 North (references in meeting materials included local road names and proximity to a sewer line). Commissioner discussion acknowledged the lots are “nice size” and that sewer access is on the edge of the site.

Commissioners voted to accept the plats (two existing parcels would become five lots total) and said they would encourage development toward the urban fringe where utility service exists. Staff said they would watch lot design and utility connections as the process continues.

No conditional waivers, variance grants or infrastructure funding commitments were recorded during the meeting; the action recorded acceptance of the filings and referral to appropriate staff and committees for next steps.

Ending: The board closed the item after acceptance and asked staff to keep the commission informed of drainage and utility coordination as building permits move forward.
