Summary

After staff explained the petition would remove an old recorded plat and the developer (Twin Hollows LLC) would be responsible for stormwater retention on the redeveloped lots, the board approved the petition to vacate a portion of Lot 3, recording a 5–0 vote.

The board approved a petition to vacate part of Lot 3 of a previously recorded commercial plat so a private developer could proceed with a new development. Meredith Bush, appearing for the applicant, explained that the vacation request removes an old plat record and that the developer would be responsible for required stormwater retention tied to the new development.

Commissioner questions focused on whether the county was relinquishing county property and who would be accountable for future stormwater management. Staff clarified the property is privately owned (Twin Hollows LLC) and the action is removal of the older plat language so the developer can redevelop; the developer would be responsible for stormwater infrastructure and permits through standard plan review processes. After an amended motion to reflect the smaller vacated area described by the applicant, the board voted 5–0 to grant the petition "as amended."
