Unwilling to let another long-stalled housing subdivision fade into oblivion, the City Council on Tuesday voted 6-0 to allow a developer to sell lots before he makes required on- and off-site improvements.
The decision went against the recommendation of Gary Jeppson, the city’s director of Development Services, who wanted developer Scott Lander to finish paving sidewalks and roads before his property assurance escrow was released.
The Hualapai Shadows subdivision, located north of Hualapai Mountain Road and east of N. Central Street, was approved in 2006.
Plans called for the 127 lots to be built in three phases. Phase 1, which includes 51 lots, is finished, but Lander said he needed to start selling lots in phase 2 to fund the improvements he’s required to make and to allow him to finish phase 3. Combined, the two phases include 77 additional lots.
