Planning panel approves Audio Ranch plat, requires developer to confirm acreage on two lots

The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the final plat for the Audio Ranch subdivision, voting unanimously to approve the plat as presented but attaching conditions that the developer return to confirm that Lots 18 and 13 exceed two acres and that outstanding engineering plan items be finalized. The Chair told the commission that the plat "has been determined by the town staff and engineer to meet the town's requirements."

Commission discussion focused on minor typographical lot-dimension errors and how survey rounding could leave two lots just short of the two-acre threshold on paper. One commissioner proposed adding a condition to verify Lots 18 and 13 after the developer corrects or confirms the figures; another asked that the engineering items remain subject to administrative approval separate from plat approval. A member moved "to approve it with the conditions as you stated," and a second followed; the Chair called for a voice vote and declared the motion unanimous. The transcript records unanimous approval but does not list individual tallies.

The commission emphasized that plat approval does not substitute for later engineering reviews: administrative sign-off on construction plans remains a prerequisite before any construction may begin. The developer must submit corrected dimensioning for the two flagged lots and any revised engineering plans; staff will verify the items and record the final plat when requirements are met.
