Planning commission approves lot split for proposed Andover Senior Living project
Summary
The City of Andover Planning Commission voted to approve a two-lot split so the developer can phase construction of a senior living facility; staff and the city engineer recommended approval.
The City of Andover Planning Commission approved a lot split for land the applicant intends to develop as a senior living facility, voting to permit two lots so the project can be built in two financing phases.
City zoning staff told the commission the request is a “very simple split” of a large parcel so the developer can avoid placing a mortgage on the future development space. Staff said both resulting lots meet the district's bulk regulations and recommended approval. The city engineer also reviewed the proposal and recommended approval.
Chairperson presided over the hearing and called for a motion after the staff presentation. A commissioner moved to approve the lot split for “Lot 2, Block 2 of the Heritage Met a mixed use second edition as submitted.” Dan Coulson seconded. The chair called the vote; commissioners voted in favor and the motion carried.
The action authorizes the division of the parent parcel into two lots; the commission did not attach special conditions beyond the standard platting and zoning requirements discussed during the hearing. The applicant was present in the meeting record and indicated the split was intended to support phased financing for the senior living project.
The commission moved on to consider other cases after approving the lot split. No additional public comments were recorded on this agenda item.
Looking ahead, if a site plan or plat is required, the applicant must submit those documents and secure any applicable permits before construction can begin.
