Commission approves three-lot split of 23.9-acre farm parcel (S25-4)
Summary
The commission approved S25-4, a subdivision splitting a 23.8984-acre A‑1 agricultural parcel at Shaker Town and Grange Hall Road into three lots (5.0123 ac, 5.0095 ac, and 13.8766 ac). The zoning remains A‑1; staff recommended approval and commissioners noted the parcel’s creek and city-owned adjacent land will influence future development.
The Beavercreek Planning Commission approved S25-4, a three-lot subdivision of a 23.8984-acre agricultural parcel, by a 4–0 recorded vote.
City staff described the proposal as a simple lot split titled "The Farm Phase 2." The applicant proposes three parcels: Parcel 1 at 5.0123 acres, Parcel 2 at 5.0095 acres, and Parcel 3 at 13.8766 acres. All parcels will remain zoned A‑1 (agriculture). Staff recommended approval with standard subdivision conditions, and no engineering representative appeared at the meeting.
During discussion commissioners and staff noted constraints that may limit future development on the eastern portion of the property, including a creek that bisects the parcel and the potential cost of bridging the creek if significant improvements are proposed. Commissioners also noted nearby city-owned land and an existing large detention pond to the north, and that any future rezoning or development proposal would require public notice and separate hearings.
The final recorded vote on S25-4 was: Mister Meyer — yes; Mister Fountain — yes; Mister Jones — yes; Mister Sowell — yes. The motion to approve included the standard three conditions in the staff report.
Next steps: the subdivision record will be finalized in accordance with the conditions; any future rezoning or development proposals for these lots will follow standard public-notice procedures and technical reviews.
