Roseville Council Greenlights Minor Plat Near Cleveland and Centerpoint Drive North
The Roseville City Council unanimously approved a minor plat for an unaddressed property at the southwest corner of Cleveland and Centerpoint Drive North, paving the way for future land use adjustments.
The Roseville City Council voted unanimously on Monday, June 8, 2026, to approve a minor plat for an unaddressed property located at the southwest corner of Cleveland and Centerpoint Drive North. The decision, which followed a presentation by City Planner Thomas Pashki, marks a step forward in the potential development or repurposing of the site, previously associated with the Veritas campus.
A minor plat typically involves the division of a parcel of land into two or more smaller lots without creating new public streets or major infrastructure changes. This approval signifies the City Council’s endorsement of the proposed lot split, allowing for further planning and potential development on the property.
The resolution to adopt the minor plat was moved by Council member Grath and seconded by Council member Bower, ultimately passing without opposition. The swift and unanimous approval reflects the council's readiness to address land use requests that align with the city's comprehensive plan and development goals for the area.
