Plan and Zone Commission approves final plat for Spencer Hollow Sixth Addition
Summary
The Bettendorf Plan and Zone Commission approved the final plat for Spencer Hollow Sixth Addition (Case 25012), a 22-lot single-family subdivision with required 10,000-square-foot lots, a 15-foot utility easement system and stormwater detention, subject to staff recommendations.
The Bettendorf Plan and Zone Commission voted to approve the final plat for Spencer Hollow Sixth Addition (Case 25012), a replat of part of the Spencer Hollow subdivision that will create 22 single-family lots, each required to be 10,000 square feet.
Taylor, a staff member presenting the case, told commissioners the plat conforms with the city’s comprehensive plan and the subdivision’s prior layout. “This is what the final plat will look like, Spencer Hollow Sixth edition,” Taylor said, describing 15-foot utility easements throughout the site, a 52-foot right of way with 4-foot sidewalks and an outlet labeled “Outlet A” to serve stormwater detention. Taylor also stated none of the subdivision is in the floodplain.
Staff recommended approval subject to the standard staff recommendations. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the detention outline and consistency with previous editions; Taylor confirmed the detention was designed to serve the entire area and that dimensions and many standards follow the prior platting. A motion to approve Case 25012, the final plat of Spencer Hollow Sixth Addition, subject to staff recommendations, was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.
The approved plat maintains the previously planned street connections, including Spring Creek Drive and Forest Grove Drive, and retains the existing right-of-way width and sidewalk dimensions for continuity with surrounding phases. The commission noted the subdivision will continue to use the older 52-foot right-of-way and 4-foot sidewalks for continuity with surrounding phases; new subdivisions must meet the newer standard (wider right-of-way and 5-foot sidewalks) for ADA purposes.
Commission discussion and audience comment were limited; no public speakers addressed this case at the hearing. The final plat may be recorded following the standard administrative steps and subject to any conditions listed in the staff recommendations.
