Summary
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the preliminary and final plat for the Hadsell (transcribed also as 'Hatzell') Ranch subdivision subject to two staff conditions, including a 25‑foot dedication of additional right-of-way; the Board of County Commissioners will consider the recommendation on Feb. 12.
The Shawnee County Planning Commission voted unanimously on Jan. 12 to recommend approval of the preliminary and final plat for the Hadsell Ranch subdivision.
Staff described two existing parcels on Northwest 62nd Street (2.73 acres and 0.7 acres) and a proposal to combine part of 12020 Northwest 62nd Street with an adjacent parcel to create a 1.46‑acre lot with the remainder retained for agricultural use. Because the combined property did not meet plat-exemption acreage criteria, staff said a subdivision plat was required to create a compliant legal lot.
Staff recommended approval subject to two conditions: execution of an additional dedication of 25 feet of right-of-way along Northwest 62nd Street (for a total of 45 feet as required by Shawnee County Public Works) and that no building permit be issued until that dedication is executed. The applicant briefly described plans to keep the property as natural grass.
A commissioner moved to approve the preliminary and final plat as recommended; a second followed and a roll-call vote was recorded as unanimous in favor. The planning commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration on Thursday, Feb. 12.
