Council
Council to review Foxtail Meadows Third Addition plat with 8 substandard-width lots
The St. Michael City Council is reviewing a lot designation exhibit for the Foxtail Meadows Third Addition, a residential plat by Centra Homes, LLC. The agenda includes a site plan showing 8 lots that are 44+ feet wide but less than the required 45 feet, with an alternative to reconfigure the area to add another lot. This appears to be a discussion or decision item, though the agenda text is largely a drawing label and does not specify a formal action.
- Foxtail Meadows Third Addition plat review
- 8 lots proposed at 44+ feet wide, below the 45-foot minimum
- Alternative: reconfigure area to add another lot with new Jamison alignment
