Planning commission approves River Haven lot‑line adjustment after county filing issues
Summary
The commission unanimously approved PLC 25‑1007, an amended plat shifting a lot line between River Haven Estates Phase 1 Lot 11 and Phase 2 Lot 19 so the homeowner can build an addition; recordation was delayed by a county requirement tied to recent state code changes.
The Riverton City Planning Commission unanimously approved PLC 25‑1007 on Sept. 25, an amended subdivision plat that adjusts a lot line between Lot 11 of River Haven Estates Phase 1 and Lot 19 of Phase 2 to match an existing fence and allow a homeowner to build an addition.
Staff described the application as a straightforward lot‑line adjustment with a complicated administrative history: the property owners had long assumed the fence marked the boundary, but a recent survey showed an 18‑foot discrepancy. The applicant, Gina Cartano, sought to move the lot line to the fence to accommodate a rear addition, but the county rejected an earlier filing and informed staff that recent changes to state code now require a recorded plat for this kind of adjustment.
Tim, a planning department staff member, told the commission that the resulting lots will meet Riverton’s zoning code for setbacks and lot size. Staff said neighbors were noticed; no public opposition was submitted. The applicant confirmed both owners agreed and provided a quitclaim deed and notary page as evidence of consent.
Commissioner Matheson moved to approve PLC 25‑1007 (River Haven amended subdivision) with two stated conditions; Commissioner Beck seconded. The commission voted unanimously to approve the amended plat. Staff said the city will check the final document with the county and the applicant may proceed with building permits once the plat is recorded.
The commission’s action allows the applicant to move forward to record the corrected plat and obtain building permits for the addition once county recording requirements are satisfied.
