Final Plat – Betcher Subdivision

APPLICANT/OWNER:

Curtis Betcher and five other owners

AGENT:

Doyle Surveying

CASE SUMMARY:

The applicant is proposing to subdivide a previously unplatted piece of land in anticipation of future development.  

CASE BACKGROUND:

In 2015 Mr. Betcher’s property was annexed into the City of Gillette. The lot is currently undeveloped. In fall of 2016 Mr. Betcher proposed the Betcher Subdivision. That subdivision consisted of two (2) lots, Lots 1 and 2. That subdivision plat was approved by the Planning Commission on August 23, 2016, and then by resolution by the City Council on September 6, 2016. However, the Planning Division received a letter from Mr. Betcher requesting to repeal the previously approved Resolution 2580 so that he may propose a new lot layout. That repeal request will be heard by the City Council at a future meeting.

Mr. Betcher is proposing to establish two (2) lots and one (1) tract as part of the Betcher Subdivision. The proposed lot lines match the zoning designations established by the Betcher Annexation. Lot 1 being zoned as C-3, Business/Services zoning district while Lot 2 is zoned as I-1, Light Industrial zoning district. The newly established tract, Tract A, will also be zoned as I-1, Light Industrial but will be dedicated and deeded to the City for drainage as it is primarily covered by a large detention cell. A portion of Lot 1 will also contain a Drainage Easement. Access to Lot 1 will be from Shoshone Avenue while access to Lot 2 will be from the proposed forty foot (40’) Access and General Utility Easement running along South Butler Spaeth Road, or from the existing access to the property to the south through a shared access easement established in the future. Utilities are available from both Shoshone Avenue and South Butler Spaeth Road. Currently the proposed subdivision is for ownership purposes only in anticipation of future development. 

CASE REQUIREMENTS:

1. All comments and concerns will be addressed in ePlans prior to submitting the Final Plat for signatures.

2. The Planning Division will need both a Deed and Statement of Consideration for the transfer of ownership of Tract A to the City of Gillette to be recorded with the plat. 

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval, subject to all Planning Requirements.
