Council approves Chestnut Hill preliminary plat with conditions; carries forward fire‑district checks
Summary
The council approved the preliminary plat for Chestnut Hill Subdivision, finding the plan consistent with the county's concept plan and attaching conditions including final fire‑district written comments and review of any CC&Rs.
The Bannock County Planning and Development Council voted to approve the preliminary plat for Chestnut Hill Subdivision, subject to staff‑recommended conditions.
At the meeting, staff presented that the preliminary plat conforms with the council's previously approved concept plan and that most required items remain unchanged from the concept submission. The council acknowledged outstanding items to be carried to final plat, chiefly written comments from the Pocatello Valley Fire District. Staff read the conditions into the record.
The conditions carried with approval are: (1) at final plat provide and meet written comment requirements from Pocatello Valley Fire District; if no comments are received, the applicant must provide proof of at least two contact attempts; (2) developer to research whether any restrictive covenants (CC&Rs) apply to the existing lots and, if such CC&Rs exist, condition 3 applies; and (3) if no CC&Rs were proposed by the developer, adopt the CC&Rs from the neighboring Cinnamon Springs Subdivision updated to the new subdivision name.
The council motion to approve the preliminary plat as described in the application materials and staff report passed on a 3–0 roll call vote (record shows Crystal Munson/Munson? read as present, Molly Dimock yes, Chad Selenite yes). The record notes the street plan has not changed since the concept stage and roadways currently exist as shown on the plan. Staff said the final plat will carry forward the fire‑district comment requirement.
Staff and a council member noted CC&Rs were not shown on the old plot map in some cases and that the developer or surveyor should research historical documents to determine whether CC&Rs exist.
