BOCC AGENDA SESSION
STAFF REPORT
BOCC AGENDA SESSION DATE: December 20, 2022
ACTION REQUESTED: BOCC Signature of mylar granting final approval for the Forest Ridge Ph. 4 Plat
(LPF-22-00006 & LP-08-00014)
BACKGROUND: The Forest Ridge Preliminary Plat was approved on December 28, 2010 through
Resolution 2010-137 (LP-08-00014). This proposal (Ph. 4) is for fifty-seven (57) lots
and five (5) open space tracts on nine (9) parcels (962045, 962151, 962154, 962157,
962328, 962329, 962330 962333 and 962336). The subject property is currently
zoned Forest & Range but was zoned Rural 5 at the time of plat submittal and this
plat was done under a performance-based cluster plat that can be seen in the 2008
zoning & subdivision codes. The original proposal had 9 phases but that has been
scaled back to 5. The property is located just northeast of the City of Cle Elum with
most of the lots off Forest Ridge Drive. It is in a portion of Section 24, Township 20,
Range 15, WM in Kittitas County.
A final plat application was submitted by Skyline Ridge LLC, landowners on August
25, 2022 requesting final mylar approval for the Forest Ridge Ph. 4 plat. Due to
necessary changes, the final mylars were returned and then resubmitted on October
14, 2022, November 10, 2022 and December 12, 2022. Staff has reviewed the final
mylar with supporting documentation and finds that it is consistent with the
preliminary approval documents for this phase. Additionally, final plat review has
been processed in conformance with Kittitas County Code Title 16. The mylar has
been reviewed by all reviewing departments, and all signatures are currently being
obtained. All departments have indicated that they have or will sign the plat at the
time of this writing.
INTERACTION: Board of Commissioners, Community Development Services, Public Works, Public
