Commission recommends flag‑lot code changes to county commission, drops controversial length cap

The Planning Commission voted to recommend an amended county flag‑lot ordinance (proposed section 17.27.0.110) to the county commission, with the specific deletion of a proposed section (g) that would have imposed a 250‑ft maximum access length for certain smaller lots. Staff said the redline draft reduces the maximum number of flag lots in many situations, retains a 33‑ft minimum access width, and adds options for a 10‑ft utility easement outside the access strip in lieu of dedicating a full 46 ft to the county in some cases.
