Chairman Whitted referred to Item 12: Plats for Consideration. He recognized Chris Edwards from the Planning Department who referred to Item 12-D: Clearwater Hills - This plat proposes the re-division of two previously recorded lots into three lots, each being 1.8 acres. All lots front on SR #1918. The Board asked that this plat be considered as a preliminary plat instead of a final plat. Dpon motion of Commissioner Pinney, seconded by Commissioner Walker, it was moved and adopted to approve the Clearwater Hills plat as a preliminary plat. J. Woods Brothers: This plan proposes the division of a parcel into fourteen one-acre lots. A public rood will provide access to SR #1562 fro ten lots and a private Class C Standard road will provide access to the back four lots. This propoerty is located in a single family housing area located on Palmers Grove Road. The proposal is to build a road to state standards up unto a cul-de-sac. Frvm that point, there will be a private road to the back lots. The reasons for this action is that a paved road serving the back lots would increase the price of the lots and the developer would be unable to sell and also the developer Feels the secluded back lots would provide privacy. Mr. Edwards stated that a road maintenance agreement had been guaranteed. Discussion ensued concerning a private road coming from a public road. ,. Commissioner Walker moved that the Woods Brother Preliminary Plat be approved. Commissioner Gustaveson stated that his concern was that in several years, people would come before this Board questioning why this private road is not a workable road.
