and must be shown to be compliant.

Background/Discussion
Case No. P 18-16
th
The properties are located at the northwest corner of 185 Avenue and
Troy Street and are 13.59 acres in size. The proposed plat will consist of
th
one lot. Access to the new parcel will be from 185 Avenue.
The applicant submitted the plat to combine two lots into one. As there
is a reduction in the number of parcels, the plat is exempt from the city
subdivision ordinances, and falls under the city’s Platted Exemption
regulations, which does not require a public hearing.
The property was previously platted and recorded with the Dickenson
Addition. After the plat was recorded, the applicant realized there was an
approximate two-acre discrepancy in the property sizes. This proposed plat
is correcting this error by combing parcels 75-871-0110 & 75-131-2405.
Parks and Recreation Commission
The Parks and Recreation Commission did not review this as it is not
eligible for park dedication.
