Commission approves preliminary plat for Parkstone Estates with conditions on grades and erosion controls
Summary
The board approved the preliminary plat for Parkstone Estates (≈40 acres, ~13 lots of 2 acres or larger) after staff and the developer resolved comments about a pond, cul‑de‑sac grades and erosion control; the developer also committed to walking trails and a tree preservation buffer along the frontage.
Eric, a county staff member, introduced the preliminary plat for Parkstone Estates on Post Road and summarized review issues including a nearby pond and grades in a cul‑de‑sac; he said the developer addressed the county's engineering comments and that all lots will be two acres or larger.
Caleb Smith, representing the applicant, said the project covers about 40 acres and will produce roughly 13 lots, and that street grades fall within county subdivision regulations. "We are maintaining a 25 foot tree preservation area," the engineer for the developer later confirmed, and the developer intends to provide walking trails between lots that will be extended in future phases.
A resident questioned privacy implications of the design where homes face shared walkways; the owner/builder, Gina Moore, told the board the minimum home size is expected to be 2,500 square feet and confirmed an HOA will be established.
A motion to approve the preliminary plat was made, seconded and carried by roll call with commissioners voting in the affirmative. Staff will continue engineering review as construction plans are developed and the developer will work with staff on final grades and erosion control.
