Commission approves 100‑lot Hills of Northwest Passage plat and longer block length exception
Summary
The commission approved a 100‑lot preliminary plat for The Hills of Northwest Passage and granted a modification to permit block lengths up to approximately 1,000 feet (standard is 600 feet), subject to TAC conditions on utilities, sidewalks, and easements; vote was unanimous.
Route 66 Engineering presented The Hills of Northwest Passage preliminary plat — a proposed 100‑lot subdivision — and requested a modification to extend allowable block lengths from the standard 600 feet to roughly 1,000 feet. Staff and TAC recommended approval with technical conditions including public sanitary sewer extension, water‑supply evaluation (possible tank or pump station), sidewalk installation, clarification of reserve area uses, and filing of required off‑site easements.
The Commission approved the preliminary plat and the requested modification to Table 5‑1 that permits greater block lengths by unanimous vote. TAC comments emphasized engineering details that must be resolved in IDP and final‑plat submittals, including storm conveyance, sanitary sewer routing, easement widths, ADA ramp placement, and driveway/inlet adjustments. The approval advances the project toward final engineering and construction once the developer meets those conditions.
