MPC asked if it would make sense to move the proposed dotted lines lying south of the access road and move the boundary north of the access road. The applicant responded that the south boundary layout was at the request of the buyer. The applicant indicated that Toren Energy submitted a letter indicating that the access road will be removed once the well it leads to has been abandoned. MPC inquired on the odd shape of the proposed parcel. The applicant replied that the new owner requested as much property as possible to accommodate a new pivot. There was discussion regarding EiD irrigation and residential water and the Supervisor of Planning & Development indicated that the surveyor works with the EID to ensure all conditions are met and signed off. The applicant informed MPC that the hay shed removal would take place during the winter months and asked if it was possible to proceed with the subdivision and sale prior to confirmation of removal. A discussion followed and it was agreed that it would be a few months by the time all conditions were complete. P-58/22 MOVED BY COUNCILLOR DAN SHORT That the MPC approve the subdivision of an approximate 2.98 hectare (7.37 acre) parcel from the 64.44 hectare (159.14 acre) parcel of NE 16-15-15-W4 for residential purposes subject to the following conditions: Page 2 of 3 Municipal Planning Commission October 6, 2022 That, pursuant to Section 654(1)(d) of the Municipal Government Act, all outstanding property taxes shall be paid to the County of Newell. 2.
