No discussion.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 3: Minor and Amending Plats Approved by Staff.
• Agency Records Control, Inc.
Development Manger Ruiz reported that the lot was divided into two lots. She explained that because
the property was already developed, exacting the roadway at the time of platting would have been a
taking of the roadway. Additionally, to have the roadway there, a capital improvement contract is
required. Ms. Ruiz also reported speaking with the adjacent property owner, who may develop a
business park center on their property, which may lead to relocating the roadway in order to have the
connection. Some of this property may need to be exacted. She added that the property owner stated
that they were willing to dedicate the right -of -way.
