Park County approves final plat and subdivision improvements agreement for Horizon Estates Minor Subdivision
Summary
The Board of County Commissioners approved the final plat and subdivision improvements agreement for Horizon Estates Minor Subdivision No. 89, imposing standard recording and improvements conditions and clarifying the regulatory citation to the 2015 Park County development regulations.
The Park County Board of County Commissioners approved the final plat and subdivision improvements agreement for Horizon Estates Minor Subdivision No. 89 on a voice vote after staff summarized the planning record.
The action covers a four-lot subdivision proposed by applicant Owen Weisenhunt. Planning and zoning staff said the proposed lots are for residential and agricultural use and measure about 15.00 acres, 15.01 acres, 22.19 acres and 30.98 acres. The parcel is located roughly nine miles west of Powell near the southeast corner of County Lane 10 and County Road 20. The board approved the subdivision improvements agreement first, then the final plat with conditions, including an 18-month deadline for recordation and a single potential extension of up to six months.
The staff presentation stated the application met the final plat specifications in Park County appendices 3, 5 and 7, and that the subdivision improvements agreement and an irrevocable letter of credit had been approved as to form by the county attorney. Staff noted corrections made to the preliminary submittal: the irrigation district was corrected to Heart Mountain Irrigation District; a deed document number was added for an adjacent property; the county road right-of-way was clarified to be 30 feet each side of center line; and an irrigation drain center line and measured distances were added along Lot 4’s east side.
Planning and zoning staff recommended approval with six conditions. Key conditions read into the record require: timely completion or recording of required documents including the irrevocable letter of credit and the subdivision improvements agreement; utilities and special districts to provide letters confirming installation of required improvements; evidence that perimeter fencing and other improvements are complete and free of liens; and that the applicant comply with the Park County development regulations and Wyoming statute 18-5-306. At the board’s request staff amended Condition 6 to specify the applicable Park County development regulations as the 2015 edition.
The board made two motions and approved both by voice vote: first to approve the subdivision improvements agreement, then to approve the final plat with the conditions read into the record. There were no public comments during the non-public-hearing item.
The approvals require the applicant to record the final plat and related documents with the county clerk and recorder and to provide documentation from utilities and a title company before a release of the letter of credit is considered.
