Hancock County’s Plat Committee approved the Butera Minor Subdivision, a two‑lot division in Brandywine Township, following staff confirmation of required departmental sign‑offs.
Staff presented the plat and said the two created lots are roughly 8½ acres each after the proposal was reduced from three lots to two to meet split limits. "We also have a 35‑ft half right‑of‑way dedication along the front along 50 West," staff said, noting shared‑driveway covenants are included in the plat's covenant section.
Survey and auditor comments were described as technical and typographical; staff said owner names must match at recording and that drainage easements and regulated drain details (75‑ft easement on either side) were noted. A committee member moved to approve the plat with the requested 3:1 exception; the motion was seconded and carried on a unanimous voice vote.
What’s next: staff will finalize any needed corrections and proceed with standard recording steps.
