DRC delays Orchards/Apple Grove condominium plat amendments over phasing alignment
Summary
Committee members discussed five condominium plats whose infrastructure phasing lines did not align with plat boundaries, creating staging, parking and tax‑allocation questions. Engineers said revised plats and a phasing plan will be returned to the DRC; members tabled action pending revised documents.
The Santaquin City Development Review Committee discussed proposed changes to the phasing lines in a five‑building condominium project identified as the Orchards/Apple Grove development and decided to table action until amended plats and a clearer phasing plan are submitted.
Planner Jason (staff) explained that the project currently shows five condominium plats tied to five buildings while the developer’s infrastructure phasing (phase A and B) does not match the plat boundaries, complicating staging and construction sequencing. Jason said the discrepancy arose because some parking and infrastructure are split across plat lines and the applicant is proposing to shift phasing so one plat would contain the majority of staging and parking.
Kyle Spencer of Northern Engineering told the DRC the firm would prepare revised plat sheets to trim and reassign portions of Plat C and Plat E to accommodate construction staging and to preserve emergency access. “We have 5 buildings, 5 different condominium plats to keep each condominium plat stand alone,” Kyle said, and he confirmed the engineering team can prepare the revised plats for the next DRC cycle.
Committee members discussed procedural options for consolidating minor preliminary changes with final plat approval; staff explained code separates preliminary and final actions and generally requires a minimum interval between them, so consolidation into a single meeting is unlikely. The DRC made a motion to table the item so the applicant can return with revised preliminary plats and a clarified phasing plan; the motion passed.
Next steps: the applicant will submit amended plats and a phasing plan for DRC review; staff will confirm whether code permits combining actions or whether the preliminary minor change must be processed separately before final plat action.
