Commissioners vacate Cheney Creek West plat to revert property to original Town of Milner lots
The Board of County Commissioners voted July 22 to vacate the Cheney Creek West subdivision plat (PL 20250051), returning the property to the historic Town of Milner lot configuration so it can be used more flexibly for future development. County planning staff told commissioners the three original 25‑by‑125‑foot lots pre‑date modern subdivision rules and that vacating the newer plat would allow the property to revert to the prior lot lines. Staff noted the request was unusual but consistent with the Unified Development Code when a prior plat exists. Planning staff said the current owner had been issued foundation‑only approvals at the owner’s risk and that the vacation was proposed to avoid a later need for reconsolidation. The board’s motion required that a resolution vacating Cheney Creek West be recorded within three years. Commissioners discussed well and water access for the parcel; staff said the property and adjacent lot share a well and a recorded agreement serves both houses, and that the proposed vacation should not create new well‑permitting issues because only one house is planned for immediate construction. Planning commission minutes were not included in the initial packet but were provided subsequently, and planning commissioners had recommended approval without questions. The motion to vacate the plat passed on a motion and second with a voice vote; staff will record the resolution and close the project after required documents are filed.
