Summary

Council approved a final plat creating a 1.69-acre lot (Jay Johnson Addition) to separate a Cornerstone Baptist Church parcel and an adjacent gym, despite Planning & Zoning delays; staff will confirm owner name discrepancy on the application.

The City Council approved a final plat on Aug. 11 that separates an existing tract into a 1.69-acre lot for Cornerstone Baptist Church and a separate lot for an adjacent gym building.

Planning staff described the item as a replat to separate two existing buildings, noting one lot contains Cornerstone Baptist Church and the other contains a covered gym that used to be basketball courts. "So 1 of them is a Cornerstone Baptist Church," staff said. The presenter also noted an apparent name discrepancy on the application ("Jack Johnson" vs. "Jay Johnson") and said staff would cross‑check the paperwork before recording.

Planning & Zoning had scheduling conflicts and did not review the item prior to the council meeting; staff said mailed notices were sent and no responses were received. Council voted to approve the final plat by motion with no recorded opposition.

The council's approval allows the property owner to proceed with separate development of the two lots subject to standard recording and platting procedures.
