MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The Planning & Housing Director has determined that the proposed plat of survey satisfies
all code requirements, and has accordingly rendered a preliminary decision to approve the
proposed plat of survey.
Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council act in
accordance with Alternative#1, which is to adopt the resolution approving the proposed
plat of survey. Approval of the resolution will allow the applicant to prepare the official plat
of survey incorporating all conditions of approval specified in the resolution. It will further
allow the prepared plat of survey to be reviewed and signed by the Planning & Housing
Director confirming that it fully conforms to all conditions of approval. Once signed by the
Planning & Housing Director, the prepared plat of survey may then be signed by the
surveyor, making it the official plat of survey, which may then be recorded in the office of
the County Recorder.
It should be noted that according to Section 23.307(10), the official plat of survey shall not
be recognized as a binding plat of survey for permitting purposes until a copy of the signed
and recorded plat of survey is filed with the Ames City Clerk's office, and a digital image in
Adobe PDF format has been submitted to the Planning & Housing Department.
