The Applicant has submitted a request to replat a 26,037 square foot lot into two lots.
The property is located at 4223 South Mason Street, just north of Troutman Parkway.
There are two existing buildings on the existing lot. On the front of the lot, along the
west south of South Mason Street, is Pro Golf Discount. On the rear portion of the lot,
adjoining the BNSF right-of-way is Minuteman Press. The effect of the replat would be
to create an individual lot for each building. There is no new development or public
improvements associated with the replat.
