Craig Bennett of Miller Associates, representing DT Development, described the project as a 3.42‑acre parcel that will be dedicated as Lot 1 of Spruce Hollow West Third and will require extending existing paving easterly and the construction of a temporary cul‑de‑sac to serve the lot. “They would be required to extend this paving here easterly from the end of the existing paving that is on the east side of the lot,” Bennett said, describing the required road extension and the 24‑foot‑wide road standard to be used.

City staff advised the commission that the proposed rezoning from AG to RR2 is consistent with the trend of development in the area, compatible with adjacent zoning and the city’s future land‑use densities, and that the lot complies with the applicable site development regulations. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning and the final plat as presented.

Commissioners closed the public hearing and approved rezoning case 2025‑04 and final plat 2025‑03. The motion to approve the rezoning and the subsequent motion to approve the final plat carried with affirmative votes from the commissioners present.

Key details provided in the hearing:
- Parcel size: approximately 3.42 acres (one lot).
- Roadwork: required extension of existing paving to the east and construction of a temporary cul‑de‑sac; road will be built to a 24‑foot standard.
- Consistency: staff stated the request aligns with the February 2016 comprehensive plan and surrounding zoning.

Next steps: After recording the final plat and completing required road and infrastructure work, the developer will proceed with standard permitting and development steps. No public opposition or specific construction timeline was recorded during the hearing.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Kearney - Planning Commission Meeting - Feb 21, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Planning Commission approved rezoning a 3.42‑acre parcel from agricultural to rural residential (RR2) and the final plat for Spruce Hollow West Third, which will require extending paving and a temporary cul‑de‑sac to serve a single new lot.","taxTitle","Kearney City, Buffalo County, Nebraska","taxId",56920,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6697429,"Planning commission approves rezonings, plats and vacations for Meadows Second Addition",882,128000,1010000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2370819-75b9ebe00198c849745969da77c2470e&start=128&end=1010","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2370819-75b9ebe00198c849745969da77c2470e/thumbnail_128000.jpg","/articles/6697429/Kearney-City/Buffalo-County/Nebraska/Planning-commission-approves-rezonings-plats-and-vacations-for-Meadows-Second-Addition","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6697429-e4e15a6fa0ab5fdf206e60a8d61f20dd/orig.mp4?Expires=1771214763&Signature=loCX-bIf1xXTYEekCnwsjt10G45AsQVRo2B5exG705ZRNAJC~S6joKbJ9v1~OJFMxzN14M2M~2JmWnxoWT3Z01siRyMbWKUx8B2L4YR5Jzz0q3xPhBAmGyHKxpWXEXRI3bU5qcnND9s9EQKRDC9biXjv~Og~Aq3SE1AeFQ2b3yl-bFgxuaVvEPRUNXDSlFyMs61qwetQVUA~5uROQRiLLc19W4U87QI0hYVno6D8ATzg7boxhXnnAkPD2oqFiXHHjQOe3IHleE2HqGKnRjgDZ1V4ggylaDTTKnAcDQHdkqL0azyEjcRq5YHfoqgn~QnqebPmaPNWKtq35nk6E23XNQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Kearney City Planning Commission on Monday approved a package of actions to allow the Meadows Second Addition, a proposed residential subdivision north of 40 First Street and east of Avenue X.

Applicant representative Nate Jensen said the development’s final plat contains 66 lots and two outlots and will reconfigure portions of the previously platted Meadows First Addition to create new east–west connections through 40 First Street and 40 Third Street. “The existing water will be fed from the 16‑inch main here on 30 Ninth Street,” Jensen said, and sanitary service will be provided by an 18‑inch sanitary trunk on 30 Ninth Street with smaller mains tying into the new streets. He added stormwater from parts of the site will outlet to an existing detention pond on the northeast side of the property.

City planning staff recommended approval. Melissa (city planning staff) told commissioners the proposed rezonings are compatible with surrounding development, the lots meet the R‑1D standards for width, public utilities can adequately serve the development, and the annexation aligns with the city’s annexation policy and the city’s February 2016 comprehensive plan. Staff reported there had been no citizen calls about the request.

Commissioners approved three non‑hearing items — an easement vacation (2025‑01), a street vacation (2025‑02) and a subdivision vacation (2023‑07) — in one bundled motion. They then approved rezoning 2025‑02 (AG to R‑1D), rezoning 2025‑03 (R‑2 PD to R‑3), preliminary plat 2025‑02, final plat 2025‑02 and annexation 2025‑01, all based on staff’s findings of fact. The record shows the motions carried with the commissioners present voting in favor.

Key technical details presented by the applicant and staff included:
- Final plat: 66 residential lots and 2 outlots; replatting of portions of the Meadows First Addition to reconfigure easements, streets and lot lines.
- Water: connection to an existing 16‑inch water main on 30 Ninth Street with internal 8‑inch loops along the new streets.
- Sanitary: tie‑in to an 18‑inch sanitary trunk on 30 Ninth Street feeding 8‑inch mains along local streets and a 12‑inch main on Avenue X.
- Stormwater: parts of the development will flow to the existing detention pond at the site’s northeast corner via flared end sections.

No formal public comments were recorded during the hearings on the Meadows Second Addition. Commissioners repeatedly referenced the city staff findings in making their motions.

Next steps: With the annexation, plat approvals and rezonings approved by the planning commission, the applicant may proceed with final engineering and permitting steps required by the city before building permits are issued. Specific timelines and permit conditions were not specified during the meeting.","The Kearney City Planning Commission approved a package of easement, street and subdivision vacations, two rezonings, preliminary and final plats and annexation for the Meadows Second Addition, a proposed 66‑lot residential subdivision north of 40 First Street between Avenue V and Avenue X.","actionData","errors"]
