Planning commission approves Marion Reserve final plat, clearing way for Phase 2 construction

The Plain Planning & Zoning Commission voted to approve the final plat for Marion Reserve Subarea C Phase 2, the commission announced during its meeting. The approval clears the way to file the engineered final plat with the county auditor and begin construction on that section of the development.

A staff member described the filing step in plain terms: “This is just the engineered final plat that gets registered with the county auditor that sets the plat and shows the easements,” the staff member said, noting the document is largely the engineering version of the previously reviewed development plan. The staff member also said, in explaining the applicant’s presence, “If you have any questions, he’s here to answer it on behalf of Kimberly Horn.”

Tyler Jackson, the applicant present at the meeting, was on hand to represent Kimberly Horn and to answer questions from commissioners. After the staff recommendation, a motion to approve PZ-24-4 was made and seconded; commissioners asked for individual votes. Commissioners Mister Price, Mister McCoy, Mister Davis, Mister Clark and Mister Schwartz indicated yes, and the chair closed the item as approved.

Staff said the next administrative step is to have the engineered final plat filed with the county auditor; once filed, the applicant may proceed with construction in that phase. The commission did not record any amendments to the plat during the meeting.

The commission moved on to other business after the approval.
