Council approves Homestead Golf Cottages and Homes final plat and plat amendment with conditions on height and parking
Summary
Midway City Council granted final approval for the Homestead Golf Cottages and Homes (five single-family homes and two condominium buildings) and approved a second plat map amendment setting building pads, limiting condominium building height to 35 feet and removing outdated cul-de-sac parking spaces.
The Council granted final approval to The Homestead Golf Cottages and Homes and approved a second-plat amendment clarifying building pads and access. Community Development Director Michael Henke said the proposal is consistent with the Homestead Master Plan and includes five single-family homes plus two condominium buildings recorded as hotel-style condominiums without kitchens. Staff noted a required dedication of 3.2 acre-feet of water rights before the final plat is recorded and recommended conditions related to lighting and parking completion before certificates of occupancy.
Council members required two specific conditions for the plat amendment: a maximum height of 35 feet for the condominium buildings and removal of the three parking stalls previously shown on the cul-de-sac. The Council approved the final plat and the plat amendment with those conditions by unanimous vote. Motion language included the finding that "The proposal benefits the City financially by creating a greater tax base." The public hearing for the plat amendment included comments from The Links HOA (Marty Reader) and a resident (Rob Johansson) about road maintenance and access enforcement; The Links' vice president described an MOU between the HOA and the Homestead to coordinate maintenance, snow removal, and guest access procedures.
Staff and Council said condominium parking will be provided within the existing resort development and that the five single-family homes will use an existing easement through The Links. The Council asked staff to ensure that required parking is completed before issuing certificates of occupancy.
