Commissioners approve Lone Pine Springs final plat with conditions
Summary
The Board approved a three-lot final plat on 117 acres (Lone Pine Springs) after staff verified access permits, an updated cost estimate/letter of credit, and required plat notes and development agreement clarifications; approval includes conditions tying recorded improvement plans to the development agreement.
Teton County commissioners approved the final plat for the three-lot Lone Pine Springs subdivision on April 16, 2025, with specific conditions attached.
Planning staff told the board the 117-acre parcel had multiple overlays and was previously approved at the preliminary-plat stage; staff summarized conditions the board attached at that earlier preliminary approval and confirmed several outstanding items had now been addressed. Specifically, the applicant had secured two access permits from Public Works (including a shared-access easement for Lots 1 and 2), submitted an updated cost estimate and draft letter of credit for required improvements, and added plat notes and CCR language addressing bear attractants and bear‑proof containers in the building covenants.
Staff recommended tying the development agreement to named improvement plans and to reference instrument numbers at time of recording so that the recorded construction plans and the development agreement remain linked. Commissioners asked staff and the applicant to ensure the development agreement’s Section 2 explicitly identifies the improvement plans and the recorded instrument numbers for clarity.
The board’s final motion approved the final plat subject to three conditions: completion of a final technical survey review prior to recordation; updating Section 2 of the development agreement to reference named improvement plans and recorded instrument numbers; and adding a plat note that the 60-foot access easement provides shared access to Lots 1 and 2. The board recorded its approval and instructed staff to verify those conditions before the plat records.
Why this matters: approval moves a previously reviewed subdivision to final recording after the applicant satisfied access, financial assurance and development-agreement conditions; linking improvement plans to the recorded development agreement is intended to avoid later ambiguity over what improvements were authorized.
