Board approves final plat for six‑lot Sunset Estates outside Woodward

At the Aug. 11 meeting the board considered the final plat for Sunset Estates, a six‑lot subdivision on Parcel 0428100007 in Des Moines Township submitted by Troy Bushnell (Associated Engineering).

Planning & Development Principal Planner Samuel T. Larson presented the staff report noting the site is about 21 gross acres, the proposed lots are three acres or larger, access will be via three shared access points on 160th Street, and the property was rezoned earlier in 2026 from A‑1 to RE‑1 to allow the subdivision. The staff report states the plat meets Chapter 42 (Subdivision Regulations) and Chapter 45 (Zoning Regulations) minimum standards and that the Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval at its July 21 meeting. The board packet indicates notices were sent to owners within 500 feet and that the City of Woodward waived its right to review.

The resolution on the agenda (Resolution 2026‑0100) directs approval of the final plat "as submitted/ or with the following restrictions or conditions: None" per the staff recommendation. The packet materials and planning memo are part of the administrative record for the action taken.
