The commission approved final plats for the Cottages at Emerald Glades (Phase 1: 42 lots; Phase 2: 40 lots) at 642 East Fountain Road. Presenter Lillian Bridal said construction will connect into existing subdivisions and include detention ponds.

The Planning & Zoning Commission approved final plats for the Cottages at Emerald Glades: Phase 1 (42 lots) and Phase 2 (40 lots), a two‑phase cottage‑style subdivision northwest of the Emerald Glades subdivision along East Fountain Road.

Lillian Bridal, presenting on behalf of Schubert Mitchell, said Phase 1 includes 42 lots with two detention ponds and Phase 2 adds 40 lots, for 82 lots total. She said the developments will connect to existing Emerald Glades streets and that some mature trees will be preserved where feasible.

Commission discussion noted the applications matched prior preliminary plats and that the two final plats will be built concurrently. The commission moved and seconded motions to approve the final plats; votes were recorded in favor and the motions carried.

Next steps: the developer will proceed with site and construction permitting as required by city regulations and the approved plats.
