Commission approves preliminary plat for Montana Lakes 4 subdivision; DNRC groundwater notice to be recorded
Summary
The commission approved preliminary plat for Montana Lakes 4 (Montana Lakes 2, lot 14), subject to standard conditions and an added requirement that an authorized DNRC notice of intent to appropriate groundwater be recorded with the final plat.
Planning staff presented the Montana Lakes 4 preliminary plat for a 25.56-acre parcel (Montana Lakes 2, lot 14; owner Greg Sandon) that would be split into two residential lots. Staff said the landowner has an approved DNRC notice of intent to appropriate up to 68 acre-feet of groundwater per year, which staff described as sufficient to support two three-bedroom residences; both lots will use individual wells and septic systems and the owner has committed to ongoing fuel-reduction work.
Commissioners discussed adding a condition requiring the authorized DNRC notice of intent to be recorded with the final plat so it appears on title reports; with that addition the commission approved preliminary plat with the standard 15 conditions. Commissioners also discussed well logs in the area and confirmed a five-year timeline for drilling under the DNRC notice of intent.
