Home My WebLink AboutA003 - Council Action Form dated September 25, 2012 ITEM # 22 DATE: 09-25-12 COUNCIL ACTION FORM SUBJECT: MINOR FINAL PLAT FOR SUBDIVISION TITLED AS "RASMUSSEN GROUP RE-PLAT OF OUTLOT H EXCEPT LOT 1 OF GENE HARRIS SECOND SUBDIVISION, BOONE COUNTY, IOWA". BACKGROUND: The Rasmussen Group proposed to subdivide an industrial property in Boone County at the intersection of Lincoln Way (230t" Street in Boone County) and X Avenue. The applicant recently submitted the proposed subdivision to the City under the title, Rasmussen Group Subdivision, First Addition. The City Council granted final plat approval to the proposed subdivision on August 8, 2012. The applicant then submitted the final plat to Boone County for its approval and recording. However, the Boone County Auditor notified the applicant that the plat must be retitled as Rasmussen Group Re-Plat of Outlot H Except Lot 1 of Gene Harris Second Subdivision, Boone County, Iowa. (See attached submittals by Brian Torresi, representing the Rasmussen Group). The applicant is now requesting that the City Council approve the plat with the revised name change. Except for the name change, the plat is the same as was approved by Council on August 8tn ALTERNATIVES: 1. The City Council can approve the Minor Final Plat known as Rasmussen Group Re- Plat of Outlot H Except Lot 1 of Gene Harris Second Subdivision, Boone County, Iowa. 2. The City Council can deny the Minor Final Plat known as Rasmussen Group Subdivision, First Addition, if it determines that the proposed subdivision does not conform to adopted standards and regulations. 3. The City Council can refer this back to staff and/or the property owner for additional information. MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: City staff and City Council previously reviewed this proposed subdivision and found that it complied with City Standards. The plat proposed under this action is the same plat as previously approved by the City Council, except for the name change. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council approve Alternative #1 as described above. 1 IE � DAUISBRo�JN� L � John D.Shin .
