COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FINAL PLAT FOR COPPER COVE
SUBDIVISION, FIRST ADDITION
ACTION FORM SUMMARY: The applicants are requesting that the City Council approve
the Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision, First Addition, which is located outside the
corporate limits in Story County.
Staff is recommending that this Final Plat be approved.
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Rich Lepper Construction, is requesting that the City Council approve the
Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision, First Addition, which is a rural subdivision located
south of Riverside Road. The proposed plat involves the re-division of Lot 6 and a part of
Lot 1, lying south of Riverside Road, in an Auditor's Plat of the SE1/4 of the SW % of
Section 23-84-24. The replat will result in a subdivision with two lots intended for the
construction of two single-family homes and an outlot. The outlot may be replatted later
and incorporated into a future buildable lot.
ANALYSIS:
The staff has reviewed the Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision, First Addition and has
determined that this plat complies with the requirements of the City.
No public improvements are required as part of this subdivision. In all other respects, the
Final Plat meets requirements of the City. Staff is recommending that this plat be
approved. (A copy of the Final Plat is attached.)
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can approve the Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision, First
Addition.
2. The City Council can deny approval of the Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision,
First Addition since no urban infrastructure (water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, city
streets) is being proposed as part of this subdivision.
3. The City Council can approve the Final Plat for Copper Cove, First Addition with
modifications.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt Alternative #1.
This action will approve the Final Plat for Copper Cove Subdivision, First Addition. This
will allow the developer to proceed with the development of the two single family lots. City
Council should understand that this recommendation for approval is based on the fact that
this subdivision in total will only involve eight lots. The interaction between staff and the
applicant occurred well in advance of the most recent problems the City is facing with rural
development that has dramatically affected the College Creek area. Staff believes that it
will be necessary for the City to clearly establish a strategy for rural fringe development
involving both Boone and Story County.
