Altoona council clears PC Power Center agreement and approves multiple plats and site plans
Summary
The City of Altoona Council on Nov. 3 approved a development agreement with PC Power Center LLC and a series of plats and site plans — including a McDonald’s site, Magnolia Plat 1 (27 lots), Meadowlands Industrial Plat 2 (7.549 acres), Spring Creek plats, Wayside Acres parking changes and a Stonebridge PUD amendment — largely approving items 'subject to deficiencies' or legal review.
The City of Altoona Council voted Nov. 3 to approve a development agreement with PC Power Center LLC authorizing annual appropriation tax increment payments and pledging certain tax increment revenues, and it approved a package of plats and site plans for residential and commercial development.
Economic Development Director Chad Quick presented the development agreement after a brief public hearing with no speakers; Councilmember Evans moved approval 'subject to form' and the council adopted the resolution by a 4-0 vote. Community Development Director John Shaw led presentation of multiple plats: Stubbs Development's resubmitted preliminary plat for Spring Creek Ridge West was reapproved per city code following a lapse of more than 180 days since the original approval. Erin Ollendike of Civil Design Advantage presented Magnolia Plat 1, which the record shows is 27 single-family lots across 16.09 acres; the council approved the final plat 'subject to deficiencies.'
The council also approved preliminary and final plats and a site plan for Meadowlands Industrial Plat 2 (7.549 acres) presented on behalf of Elle Group L.L.C., a site plan for a McDonald’s at 126 Edwin W. Skinner Pkwy SE presented by Watermark Engineering Resources, a preliminary and final plat for Spring Creek MidAm (located within two miles of the city boundary), a site plan amendment for Wayside Acres to add parking, and a Development Plan Amendment for the Stonebridge PUD. Several approvals were recorded as 'subject to deficiencies' or 'subject to legal' review in the meeting minutes. Each listed motion passed by recorded roll-call votes of 4-0.
Council approvals clear the way for multiple residential and commercial projects to move into final engineering, permitting and private development steps; the minutes record conditions (deficiencies/legal review) to be addressed by applicants and staff before final city sign-off.
