Planning staff outlines parcel-split problems, SharePoint needs and enforcement work

Oct 6, 2026

Julie from the planning and zoning department told the committee staff are tracking improperly split or combined parcels (including landlocked lots), that a county SharePoint is needed to share large application files, and that staff are preparing a floodplain checklist and public pamphlet to guide residents and developers.

The full story

Julie, the planning and zoning staff member, reported that the assessor supplied a list of parcels split or combined over the past year and that staff are flagging some parcels as not buildable because they lack legal frontage or would be landlocked. "We've been working at this because there have been instances where splits are done that really should not have been done," Julie said, and staff will note affected parcels so future owners and buyers are aware of the limitations.
