COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FINAL PLAT OF THE STAGE COACH
SUMMIT SUBDIVISION TO STORY COUNTY, IOWA.
ACTION FORM SUMMARY: The applicants are requesting that the City of Ames approve a
final plat of a two lot subdivision that is located in Story County, but within two miles of the City
of Ames.
Staff is recommending that the Final Plat of Stage Coach Summit Subdivision be approved.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council approved the Conceptual Development Plan for the proposed two lot
subdivision on May 25, 1999. Now the applicants are requesting that the City Council approve
the Final Plat. The Story County Board of Supervisors waived their approval authority of this
plat as provided for in Chapter 354.9(2) of the Code of Iowa and by Board of Supervisors
Resolution 99-46.
ANALYSIS:
The owners of the property along Stage Coach Road have met the requirements of the City
with respect to the subdivision ordinance.
There is no infrastructure that is proposed with respect to this subdivision. The lots will remain
in their current use, which includes one single family home and the remaining parcel being
vacant. The two lots are quite large with one lot being over six (6) acres and the other lot being
nearly 40 acres.
A copy of the previously approved CDP is attached for reference purposes as to location of this
request.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can approve the Final Plat of Stage Coach Subdivision.
2. The City Council can deny approval of Stage Coach Subdivision
3. The City Council can refer this request back to staff for additional information.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
