Multiple subdivisions and waivers approved or continued by Benton County planning board
Summary
The board approved Horn Estates preliminary‑plat fee application and several major subdivision waivers (Moncrief, Norton, Cooper, Violante) or continued them to address outstanding items; administrative approvals were also listed. Most motions were approved by unanimous roll call where recorded.
At its meeting the Benton County Planning Board and Technical Advisory Committee handled several subdivision and waiver requests and administrative approvals.
Horn Major Subdivision (case 26082) — staff presented a preliminary plat for a nine‑lot division named Horn Estates (roughly 31.034 acres of a 70.07‑acre parcel). Utilities were identified as Benton County Water District 1, individual septic systems and electric by Crow Electric; the board voted to apply review fees and forward the proposal to engineering review.
Moncrief major subdivision & waiver (cases 26046/26047) — applicant Tyler Moncrief requested to split a 15‑acre parcel into two tracts (approx. 13 and 2 acres) and asked to review the project as a final plat because no road or subdivision‑scale improvements are proposed. Staff reported one outstanding 911 administrative item had been completed; the board approved both the waiver and the major subdivision.
Norton (cases 26056/26057), Violante (cases 26062/26063), and Cooper (cases 26068/26069) major subdivision waivers were presented to TAC or the board. Staff and surveyors (Tim West, Rob Caster and others) described lot splits, outstanding items (named private road requirement, Arkansas Department of Health review for tracts under three acres, fire access/turnaround requirements, and administrative survey revisions) and mapping/assessor clarifications. Several items were cleared or scheduled to return in two weeks for further review; where votes occurred, they passed unanimously.
The technical advisory committee also reviewed REMCO site‑plan details and cross‑jurisdictional utility and septic issues involving a portion of the campus in Oklahoma; applicants were directed to incorporate TAC comments and return as needed.
