Breckenridge planning commission tables replat request for West Third property
Summary
The commission heard a request to split 1215 West Third (Mountain Heights Addition, Block 5, Lots 14–15) into two 7,500-square‑foot parcels to allow a second mobile home, but tabled the matter so staff can confirm whether the property already exists as two legal lots.
Breckenridge Planning Commission members on Aug. 20 considered a request to divide property at 1215 West Third in the Mountain Heights Addition (Block 5, Lots 14 and 15) into two parcels and then tabled the item for staff research.
The request, introduced by Speaker 2 (Moderator), described the current property as about 15,000 square feet and said that "after replatting each lot, we'll measure 7,500 square feet," which the record references as the minimum lot area for siting a mobile home. Speaker 3 (Staff member) summarized the applicant’s intent: "he wants to split it in 2 so we can place a mobile home on the other side." Commissioners and staff also confirmed an existing sewer tap for the current mobile home and that city sewer and water are available on the street.
The meeting record shows disagreement about the legal status of the parcels. Speaker 1 said the property is already recorded as Lots 14 and 15, and that two lots exist; staff said their understanding was that the property had not been formally replatted and that county appraisal records show a single 'R number' assigned to the ownership. Speaker 1 told the commission the exhibit provided to the board is "not a replat," calling it a boundary survey, and noted the survey date of 07/03/2024.
Because the planning staff and other participants differed on whether the parcels already exist as two legal lots, the commission agreed to table the request. Speaker 3 said staff would research property records and return the item if a formal replat is required; if the property is already legally divided, the item will not be brought back. The transcript does not record a formal roll-call vote on the tabling motion; the action was agreed by the body during the meeting.
Earlier in the meeting, the commission took a motion from Speaker 1 to approve the minutes of June 25, 2024; the body indicated assent by voice. The meeting adjourned at about 05:48.
Next steps: staff will check deed/plat/appraisal-district records to confirm whether Lots 14 and 15 are legally separate and notify the applicant and commission when the research is complete.
