Harrison Planning Commission approves two Trailhead plats with road‑width condition; excuses commissioner

The Harrison Planning Commission on July 14 approved two record plats dividing portions of an original roughly 183‑acre parcel and voted to excuse Commissioner McMurdo from the meeting.

Planning staff told the commission the first application would create Trailhead Section 3 A by subdividing the parcel into individual lots, open space and right‑of‑way totaling about 5-plus acres for development and sale. "The applicant is requesting approval of a plat that splits the original 183 plus acre parcel into individual lots, open space and right of way totaling 5 plus acres," planning staff said, and recommended approval so long as road widths meet city standards.

Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the Trailhead Section 3 A record plat with the stated condition; the motion passed on the votes of commissioners present. Later, planning staff described a second plat, Trailhead Section 2 Block E, splitting the same original parcel into lots, open space and right‑of‑way totaling about 8-plus acres and likewise recommended approval contingent on road‑width compliance. The commission voted to approve that plat with the same condition.

The meeting also included routine business: the commission approved the minutes from the June 9 meeting and voted to excuse Commissioner McMurdo. With no other business, the commission adjourned.

Planning staff and the commission noted that final approval of both plats is conditioned on the roads meeting the city standard; other technical or engineering requirements were not discussed in detail at the meeting and were not specified in the record.
