Commission approves multiple subdivisions and rezoning petitions, including planned development at South Fruit Ridge
Summary
The commission approved a suite of land-use items: a planned-development rezoning at 2722 South Fruit Ridge Avenue, several minor and major subdivision primary approvals, and variances and replat requests, all with standard recording and permit conditions.
At its March meeting the Vigo County Area Plan Commission approved multiple land-use petitions, including rezonings, minor subdivisions, replats and primary approvals for major subdivisions.
Highlights of the votes at a glance:
- 2722 South Fruit Ridge Ave (Madcar LLC): Rezoned from R1 to R1 Planned Development to allow an appointment-only financial planning office; staff recommended and the commission approved with site-plan review required.
- Matthew Phillips minor subdivision (9126 East Trimmer Drive): Approved with conditions including soil borings for Lot 1 and recording within 90 days.
- BNB Ranch replat: Replat into three lots and two variances approved with recording and permit contingencies.
- Phillips three-lot subdivision (Ganon Road): Approved subject to a minor plat amendment clarifying drainage, road permits and remedy of recorded nuisance violations.
- Mallerie Grace subdivision: Primary plat approved only due to unresolved right-of-way issues on Putnham Street; developer advised to resolve ROW/dedication or easement issues before secondary approval.
- K Wall subdivision: Primary approval only because proposed lots did not meet current minimum sizes; BZA approvals or lot adjustments will be needed before secondary approval.
- Tubarosa replat (Hendrick/Beach Street area): Approved with standard conditions prior to permitting (road permits, drainage plan, bonding and fire department approval).
Staff repeatedly noted standard contingencies — recording within 90 days, road-cut permits if needed, clarifying drainage easements and satisfying health or nuisance remedies — and recommended approval where technical conditions were expected to be met.
