Summary

The La Porte Planning Commission approved the Bailey Park final plat permitting 24 residential units with a 13,000-square-foot drainage outlot; the petitioner said financing is in place and work will proceed once water meters and taps are installed.

The La Porte City Planning Commission approved the final plat for Bailey Park, a subdivision that staff said accommodates 24 residential dwelling units and includes a 13,000-square-foot drainage outlot.

City staff summarized the final plat and recommended approval, saying the lot sizes meet R2A zoning requirements, each lot will have legal access via a frontage road behind the units connected to West 18th Street and the drainage outlot meets the subdivision's drainage, traffic safety and fire-protection requirements.

Petitioner Dan Steiner told the commission one building is already built and a unit has sold; he said his financing is in place and he plans to start two more buildings after water meters and taps are installed. "I've got all my financing set up. I'm gonna start 2 more buildings as soon as I get approval on this," Steiner said, adding that he plans full basements on future buildings and is considering a pool and a pickleball court to attract buyers.

After a motion and second, the commission approved the final plat by voice vote. During the public-comment prompt the petitioner added context about additional homes he is building north of La Porte and said city leadership is supportive of the projects.
