Williams County commissioners on Aug. 5 approved a number of Planning and Zoning items ranging from conditional‑use permits to minor subdivisions and a commercial rezoning for a future convenience store.

Michelle Haugen, county planning staff, presented multiple items. LU-0047-25 approved a conditional‑use permit for a small go‑kart track constructed on an approximately 15‑acre rural‑residential parcel; the applicant had begun construction before filing and Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0. LU-0048-25 approved a conditional‑use permit for a second dwelling on a roughly 3‑acre parcel that will host a 76×30 manufactured home; Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0. LU-0052-25 (Lakeview Developments LLC) was a zone change and resubdivision to create a roughly 2.83‑acre parcel intended for a future convenience store on ND Highway 1804; Trenton Township raised no objections and Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0.

The board also approved a subdivision/variance request from Desiree and Samuel Aronson (LU-0054-25) to re‑plot a contiguous yard parcel so the owners can integrate additional acreage into their property; Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0. Additional minor subdivisions and a variance for a proposed 17.94‑acre lot to remain in the agricultural district (LU-0057-25) were approved after Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0.

County staff noted that recordation of plats and final lot numbering are contingent on administrative review, surveyor submissions and compliance with road and county standards. Commissioners voted unanimously on the batch of items where roll call was recorded.

No additional conditions beyond the normal administrative review were adopted at the time of the votes.
