The applicant submitted a revised plat on 12/29/2025 after the revision deadline to correct one of the new street names from Elder Path Lane to Elbert Path Lane and to revise a curve bearing direction to correctly reflect the closure.
Planning staff has allowed the plat to remain on the agenda in accordance with Section 2.10.C.6, which states the nine-day final plat correction deadline may be waived with just cause. In this case, the remaining revisions were not related to the subdivision or lot layout. Additionally, revisions to the final plat were submitted in time to be included in the Planning Commission documentation.
