Summary

The planning commission approved SUB-1-25, phases 3 and 4 of the Ballard Subdivision, comprising 103 lots. Approval includes conditions in the packet and continues the developer agreement requiring a per-home fee to a development fund for improvements at the Highway 730/Powerline Road intersection.

The Umatilla Planning Commission voted to approve SUB-1-25, the third and fourth phases of the Ballard Subdivision, which together include 103 residential lots.

Staff said the subdivision will be subject to the developer agreement that also covers Cheryl’s Place and Mandalay Meadows; the agreement requires a per-home fee that contributes to a development fund to pay for road improvements focused on Powerline Road and the intersection at Highway 730. Staff told commissioners the developer has maintained good communication with the city and that required notices were sent.

Applicant Jared Farris, president and CEO of Fastrack Inc., presented and said the company intends to deliver smaller single-family floor plans for portions of the new phases. Staff also reported that, after consultation with the local fire district, a temporary turnaround will be required on Oriole Street; staff asked for and received the fire district’s input before finalizing that condition.

The commission closed the record, deliberated briefly and adopted a motion to approve SUB-1-25 with conditions 1 through 12 as listed in the meeting packet. The motion carried with no recorded opposition in the transcript.
