Planning commission approves two minor subdivisions, with conditions
Summary
Lindon planners approved a two‑lot minor subdivision for Lynen Harbor Industrial Park at 1279 W 300 S and a one‑lot plat amendment for Blackhurst Manor on June 23; both approvals carry standard engineering corrections, notarized owner signatures and development‑manual compliance.
The Lindon City Planning Commission approved two minor subdivision requests on June 23, granting preliminary approval for a two‑lot subdivision at 1279 West 300 South and final/minor subdivision approval for a one‑lot plat amendment in the Blackhurst Manor area, subject to standard conditions.
For the Lynen Harbor Industrial Park parcel at 1279 West 300 South (applicant Denny Farnsworth), staff said the proposal follows a recent ordinance amendment that allows the proposed lot proportions and that each resulting lot will be slightly more than an acre. The commission discussed buildable area standards, fire access, turnaround and parking, and required the applicant to finalize engineering corrections, obtain notarized owner consents and signatures and ensure the final plat complies with the Lindon City Development Manual before recording.
On Blackhurst Manor (parcel 451182004), staff described the one‑lot subdivision and a plat amendment to create a new buildable lot intended for single‑family use. Staff noted a public comment letter in favor of the Blackhurst development but recorded a neighbor’s concern about future access from an adjacent Rick property should that parcel develop. The neighbor and applicant discussed drainage, sewer stub elevations and private access arrangements; staff clarified that private access agreements between property owners are a private matter and the commission cannot condition approval on those private arrangements. The Blackhurst lot was reported as 21,073 square feet (approximately 0.484 acres).
"The applicant will continue to work with the city engineer and make all final corrections to the plat prior to recording," the motion required, reflecting typical conditions placed on minor subdivision approvals. Commissioners moved, seconded and approved both subdivision items by voice vote.
Next steps: applicants must provide final plat corrections, notarized signatures and any required bonds or improvement assurances before the city will record the plats and allow subsequent building‑permit processes.
Quotes from the meeting were limited; staff provided maps and engineering notes and the applicants agreed to work with city staff to resolve technical and drainage details before final recording.
