Planning commission conditionally approves two‑lot Oakmont Acres plat; requires easements and geotech check
Summary
Commission granted preliminary plat approval for a two‑lot split near Old Oakmont Lane subject to standard staff conditions, permanent access/utility easements and a geotechnical check during excavation.
The commission conditionally approved the preliminary plat for a two‑lot subdivision (Oakmont Acres first amended) located at the top of Old Oakmont Lane, subject to staff conditions and required easements. Staff said both resulting lots will meet minimum RS‑12 lot requirements and that utilities (water and sewer) must be properly dedicated into permanent public utility easements before recordation.
Commissioners asked that the property owner provide a permanent access easement if a neighbor continues to use an existing driveway across the subject parcel; staff recommended the applicant demonstrate that required utility stubs and easements are in place. Commissioners also recommended a geotechnical verification at excavation to confirm there are no unmapped fault‑line or soils constraints before foundations are built. The motion to approve the plat was passed with these conditions; city staff will verify the easements and utility stub‑ins before final recordation.
Jeff, the staff presenter, noted the timing was tied to imminent city road work: because Oakmont Lane is scheduled for reconstruction soon the applicant was urged to complete utility stub‑ins now.
