Board approves Hidden Prairie first addition final plat with septic permit condition
Summary
The Des Moines County Board approved Resolution 2026-07 to create a new ~5-acre home lot in the Hidden Prairie subdivision; staff recommended approval with the condition that a septic permit be filed and installed before occupancy.
Planning staff described Resolution 2026-07, the Hidden Prairie subdivision first addition, explaining the proposal splits an existing ~13-acre Lot 7 to create a new approximately 5-acre home lot served by a 33-foot access easement. Staff told the board the new lot is landlocked and requires an easement connection to Hidden Prairie Drive; the standard condition requires that a septic permit be filed and the septic system installed before the new house may be occupied.
A supervisor moved and another seconded the resolution; the board recorded affirmative votes and the resolution was approved. Board members indicated there were no major review concerns and that the action follows standard subdivision review practice. The board noted it will sign documents after the meeting and the clerk will file the final plat as part of the county record.
