Mayor Pat Argyle and the Garden City Town Council approved preliminary plat changes to Osprey Heights PUD, Phase 1 during their Aug. 13 meeting after developer Norm Mecham presented revisions.
Mecham told the council he acquired adjacent property to widen the subdivision entrance to 80 feet, add four lots at the beginning of Osprey Heights Boulevard and provide a place for dumpsters. He said infrastructure is “almost complete,” that the road will be paved to Paradise Parkway at 28 feet of pavement and that he is willing to stripe a bike path on the road. Planning Commission Chair Dan Kurek confirmed that open-space and retention requirements on the plat remain satisfied.
Council Member Kenneth Hansen declared a conflict of interest and left the room prior to the vote. With Hansen absent, Council Member Susann House moved to approve the preliminary plat; Council Member Brad Davis seconded and the motion carried.
The approval is a preliminary step; the developer and town will still need to complete any remaining infrastructure and meet final platting requirements before lots can be recorded and sold.
