a) #2011 -0 -032 - NE 19- 15- 13 -W4M
Vern Parker (Owner) / (Applicant)
To create one new parcel containing an existing farmstead from a titled
area of 47.88 acres (19.3 ha) for Country Residential use.
The County Planner provided background information on the proposed
subdivision. It was noted that there was an error on the map that was
circulated and it has since been corrected. There is a deferred reserve
caveat from a previous subdivision that will be one of the conditions of
this approval. Alberta Transportation responded that the applicant can
keep the same access. There was concern from members of MPC
regarding access to the residual parcel. The County Planner responded
that there is an undeveloped road allowance and we could request an
access easement agreement. It was questioned by MPC if it would be
the responsibility of the prospective buyer to construct a road within the
road allowance and if those details are buyer beware. The County
Planner responded that it would be up to the buyer to construct the
road. It may be possible to register that requirement in the form of a
development agreement against the title of the residual parcel.
