Summary

Commissioners identified a numeric conflict on the Phelps plat (a parcel listed as "0.27 acres" though totals imply ~2.7 acres) and voted to table the application until the applicant files a corrected plat narrative and map.

Commissioners tabled the Phelps subdivision on Sept. 9 after staff and members identified a discrepancy on the plat narrative. Staff noted the plat text lists a parcel at "0.27 acres, more or less," while the parent parcel totals implied a larger parcel; commissioners concluded the decimal point was likely misplaced and instructed the applicant to submit a corrected plat.

Staff said the map and plat wording must be corrected before approval. Chair Gary Renton and others recommended tabling the application so the surveyor can update the plat map and narrative; the motion to table passed unanimously. "So I would suggest we table this until they correct the plat," one commissioner said; another agreed the decimal point likely belongs between the 2 and the 7 to create about 2.7 acres.
