Village of Waterford plat converted from condo to subdivision; preliminary plat approved
Summary
The commission approved the preliminary plat (SD26004) converting the Village of Waterford at 615 Kingsbury Court from a condominium setup to a formal subdivision plat after staff said the county recorder required a subdivision plat for recording; commissioners voted unanimously.
The Clarksville Planning Commission voted to approve the preliminary plat for the Village of Waterford (SD26004) at 615 Kingsbury Court, allowing the development — long recorded and occupied as condominiums — to be formally recorded as a subdivision.
Resident Steve Pride told the commission the request was largely a recording formality after the county recorder would not accept a condominium filing as a subdivision. A staff member explained that the Village of Waterford was originally established as a condominium development and that converting to a subdivision requires a formal plat for recording. Staff said the neighborhood has been in place for roughly 20 years and that utilities should already be in place.
"This is not a new development ... it's been there for 20 years now," the staff member said, describing the item as a preliminary plat that meets checklist criteria.
A motion to approve the preliminary plat was moved and seconded (a commissioner recorded as seconded by Commissioner Stimley). The chair announced the item passed by voice vote, recorded as seven in favor.
Why it matters: Converting the Village of Waterford from a condominium record to a subdivision plat resolves a recording requirement by the county recorder and ensures the development's legal status aligns with the county's platting requirements.
Details: The applicant asked only for approval to record the subdivision plat so the recorder could accept the filing. Staff said the plat meets the preliminary checklist and the commission granted approval to move forward toward final recording.
