a. Final Plat, Liberty Pointe 3 Addition
rd
Haffner provided an overview of the request for approval of the final plat of Liberty Pointe 3 Addition by
St. Joseph Vista LLC. The preliminary plat was approved in 2003. The property is guided for high density
residential and zoned R-3 Multiple Family and planned for an apartment. Lot requirements would follow
the R-3 standards. Haffner recommended approval of the final plat based on the following conditions
being met:
1. Add the lot and right-of-way sizes to the final plat.
2. The developer must enter into a developer agreement as approved by the City per the City’s
Subdivision Ordinance and shall be recorded with the final plat.
3. All engineering items are met (attached engineer memo).
4. Site plan approval is required prior to the development and issuance of a building permit.
Dullinger asked if the right-of-way dedicated on the plat was half of the required. Haffner responded yes.
Hausmann asked if the cost of improvements would be assessed later for the improvements to build Dale
th
Street and 20 Avenue. Haffner said yes. The water would be installed with this development so those
costs would apply now. Hausmann asked if the adjacent properties were aware of this. Haffner indicated
that staff met with the adjacent property owners a few months back on the development.
