A. Final Plat for Zachary Woods. Applicant: Brent Sinn. Location: 6035 Galpin Lake Road.
Nielsen reported this was the resolution and development agreement for the final plat of Zachary
Woods. He indicated on page 1 of the resolution, paragraph 2, item C. "Gideon" should be
replaced with "Galpin". He indicated staff has the declaration of covenant but it needs to be
revised. He stated the declaration of covenant is necessary because the lots that are accessed by
Galpin Lane have to become members of the Galpin Lane Homeowners Association and have
rights and responsibility for the maintenance of that road and it also gives notice to the owners that
at such time as city water is available to those lots, they will be subject to an additional trunk
charge. He stated the second declaration pertains to Lot 4 and states the lot cannot be further
subdivided until such time as it has frontage on a public street. He reported the Galpin Lane
Homeowners Association is currently working on an easement agreement between themselves and
the Developer and that the Developer must record the deed conveying Outlot A to the property
owner of 22690 Murray Street. He indicated on the development agreement, page 3, paragraph
12, the following should be added "to determine that the work has been done in accordance with
City standards". Also on page 4, paragraph 23, Nielsen reported the City Attorney is drafting a
paragraph regarding municipal water charges. In this case the developer is asking the water
assessment fees be assessed against the lots and the future lot owners be subject to a trunk charge
at such time as city water is available.
Malam moved, Stover seconded to approve the final plat and development
agreement for Zachary Woods, for Brent Sinn, 6035 Galpin Lake Road, subject to
staff recommendations and additional items required by Staff be received prior to
the plat becoming final record. Motion passed 5/0.
