Planning commission approves sketch plat for three-lot subdivision at 113 Planter Street
Summary
Commission approved a sketch plat that would extend Harper Avenue into a 7.22-acre property at 113 Planter Street to create three lots and a cul‑de‑sac; planner said the concept is acceptable but will require engineering, utility coordination and public‑works review before final plat.
The Hartsville-Bridal County Planning Commission approved a sketch plat at its May meeting that would subdivide 7.22 acres at 113 Planter Street into three lots and extend Harper Avenue to create a cul‑de‑sac.
The applicant’s representative described plans to extend Harper Avenue from Hay Street behind a nearby shopping center and to build a cul‑de‑sac that would serve two new lots. "They're looking at extending Harper Avenue right there where it's not built off of Hay Street...They're looking at extending that into the property and creating a cul de sac to create a couple of lots," the applicant’s representative said.
Planning consultant Amanda reviewed the sketch plat and told the commission the layout "generally aligns with the subdivision layout practices in the I-1 zoning district" but that the proposed road extension "will require full engineering and coordination with public works at a later stage." Amanda said additional utility detail and a full engineering review will be required with the preliminary plat and site-plan submissions.
Rosalie, a planning staff member, recused herself from the discussion because she said she is an adjoining property owner. Commissioner Thomas moved to approve the sketch plat; Commissioner Bay seconded. The motion carried with the chair calling the approval.
Commissioners and staff emphasized that the sketch-plat approval is conceptual: required follow-up includes engineering of the proposed Harper Avenue extension, utility coordination, a site plan review and a full subdivision checklist prior to final plat approval. Staff recommended approval of the sketch plat with the understanding that detailed technical review would follow.
