Commission grants preliminary plat approval for Sarah's Crossing Phase 4 — 54 lots on 15 acres
Summary
Owner Mark Morris received preliminary approval for the final phase of Sarah's Crossing: a 54‑lot subdivision on roughly 15 acres connecting to Maple Valley; planning staff recommended approval.
Mark Morris, owner of Sarah's Crossing Subdivision, asked the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission for preliminary approval of Phase 4 — 54 lots on about 15 acres — and planning staff recommended approval at the May 12 meeting.
Morris told the commission the phase will connect the existing Sarah's Crossing streets to Maple Valley to the east and that this is the subdivision's final phase. City planning staff reviewed the plat and reported it meets subdivision code requirements and recommended approval.
A commissioner moved to approve and another commissioner seconded; the chair called for ballots and announced the motion passed. The planning staff noted that final site plan review and any required engineering or drainage work will be addressed in subsequent steps prior to construction.
Why it matters: The approval clears preliminary entitlements for home construction and street connections in an established subdivision; developers must still submit final plats, engineering and any required infrastructure upgrades before lots can be recorded and built.
What’s next: Submit final plat and engineering documents for staff review and approval prior to issuance of permits.
