Final plat approved for Santa Maria State Subdivision Unit 2; developer told rezoning needed for multifamily lots
Summary
The commission approved final plat of Santa Maria State Subdivision Unit 2 (10.26 acres, 28 residential lots and 2 multifamily lots) subject to plat updates and an 18-month maintenance bond; staff said current zoning is R1 and the two multifamily lots will require rezoning before multifamily construction permitted.
The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the final plat for Santa Maria State Subdivision Unit 2, a 10.26-acre development proposed to create 28 residential lots and two lots intended for multifamily use.
Planning staff said Tech Services submitted the plat and that Ernie Lipson attended as the applicant representative; property owner listed as MBN Enterprises LLC. Staff noted the plat shows two lots intended for R2/R3A (multifamily) but explained the plat cannot change zoning; the tract is currently zoned R1, so the developer will need to apply for rezoning before multifamily construction can proceed. Staff also recommended conditions: update the plat to match current zoning where required, and submit an 18-month maintenance bond in conformance with Sec. 23-41 covering public improvements.
Commissioners asked for confirmation that multifamily construction cannot begin until rezoning is approved; staff confirmed that building permits for multifamily units would require rezoning first. Commissioner Valdez moved to approve the final plat as recommended by planning staff; the motion was seconded and passed.
