COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: PLAT OF SURVEY FOR 4909 WEST 190TI STREET IN STORY COUNTY
BACKGROUND:
The City's subdivision regulations are found in Chapter 23 of the Ames Municipal Code.
These regulations include the process for creating or modifying property boundaries and
for determining if any improvements are required in conjunction with the platting of
property. The regulations also describe the process for combining existing platted lots or
adjusting the boundary lines of existing tracts. These regulations also apply to divisions
of land or boundary line adjustments in unincorporated Story County, except where the
Urban Fringe Plan's 28E agreement has delegated authority to the County. In this
situation there is joint authority with Story County over the proposed Plat of Survey.
Land owner, Ells and Elizabeth Cackler, are seeking a boundary line adjustment for
property currently identified as 4909 West 190t" Street in rural Story County within 2 miles
of the Ames City limits. The existing three parcels are located on 83.46 acres along the
west side of loway Creek. The majority area of the parcels are within the flood plain of the
loway Creek. (See Attachment A). The owners currently reside in a home on the middle
parcel. (See Attachment B)
The City Council discussed options related to dividing the Cackler's property at its
August 24t" meeting. It was determined at that time by Council the owners should
pursue a boundary line adjustment in conformance with the Ames Urban Fringe
Plan.
The proposed plat of survey (Attachment C) creates two parcels from the existing
three parcels. The new parcels will be under the same ownership. The proposed new
north parcel has no direct street frontage. The creation of two parcels (Parcels H & G) out
of the existing three parcels is being done in order to construct a home on the new north
parcel (Parcel H) in the future. The owner is providing access easement from 190t" street
to the new north parcel (Parcel H) as it will otherwise have no street frontage. This
approach is consistent with Story County lot standards for A-1 zoning within the County.
The Urban Fringe land use designation in this area is Natural Area. This land use applies
to environmentally sensitive areas, significant natural habitat, parks and open spaces and
greenways. Much of the land in question is within a designated floodplain with a mixture
of nearby woodlands and grassland. The Natural Area designation policies prevent
subdivisions for new non-farm residential development but may include farm and non-
farm residences existing at the time of adoption of the Urban Fringe plan.
This proposal creates one less lot after the boundary line adjustment and as a
result is not creating any new developed lots that were not already developable
under County regulations. The reduction of parcels in this case is seen to be within
the development rights that the property owner currently has according to the
County. One additional home can be built on the south parcel of the existing
property now. The proposed Plat of Survey creates no net gain of new residences
here and instead shifts the buildable area from the current south parcel of the
property to the new north parcel.
Story County subdivision regulations would permit the creation of this parcel by a Plat of
Survey as a result of it being created from a legally created parcel. Staff has consulted
with the Story County Planning Department and have been informed the proposed
Plat of Survey meets Story County requirements. Story County will act to approve the
proposed Survey after City of Ames review and approval.
Staff finds that the proposed plat of survey does not permit for more residential
lots than can already be developed currently and therefore does not conflict with
the intent of the Natural Area designation in the Ames Urban Fringe Plan.
Additionally, as a Boundary Line adjustment there are no required public infrastructure
improvements associated with the proposal per City of Ames Subdivision standards. No
waivers of subdivision requirements are requested and no covenants for future
annexation are required.
Approval of this plat of survey will allow the applicant to prepare the official plat of survey
and submit it to the Planning and Housing Director for review. The Director will sign the
plat of survey confirming that it fully conforms to all conditions of approval. The prepared
plat of survey may then be signed by the surveyor, who will submit it for recording, along
with the resolution of approval in the office of the County Recorder.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can approve the resolution approving the plat of survey if the City
Council finds that the requirements for plats of survey as described in Section 23.308
and 23.309 have been satisfied.
2. The City Council can deny the proposed plat of survey if the City Council finds that the
requirements for plats of survey as described in Section 23.308 and 23.309 have not
been satisfied.
3. The City Council can refer this back to staff and/or the owner for additional information.
CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff has determined that the proposed plat of survey satisfies all Code requirements and
meets the intent of the Ames Urban Fringe Plan in rural Story County and has made a
preliminary decision of approval. No infrastructure improvements are required consistent
with the Urban Fringe Plan as no additional residential lots are created.
Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council
accept Alternative #1.
