The approval was subject to ten conditions. Condition number five required the applicant to replat the property prior to the issuance of any building permits. As part of the proposal to replat the property, the applicant is requesting that the City vacate several easements and the right-of-way for 13th Street NE, which only serves the applicant's property.
