Berwick Heights Plat 2 is located outside Ankeny corporate limits, south of NE 54th Avenue and west of Interstate 35. The property lies within the state statutory two-mile subdivision review area for the City of Ankeny.
This 11.82-acre (+/-) plat contains two lots. The intent of this plat is to subdivide the existing single lot, creating one additional buildable lot. Polk County indicates the property zoned HI, Heavy Industrial District. The proposed plat is outside of the City's Future Land Use Plan. Thus, City staff does not believe that it is likely that the area will be annexed in the future. Lot 1 of the proposed plat currently has an individual on-site septic system. The same is proposed for Lot 2 unless sanitary sewer service becomes available to this lot prior to development. Des Moines Water Works will provide water service. A note on the plat reads that, "Street lights and sidewalks will be the responsibility of the lot owners if annexed into the City of Ankeny". |
