Board approves conditional use permit for Mashuga home to meet FEMA internal floodproofing standards
Summary
The county granted a conditional use permit to allow internal floodproofing at a residential structure owned by Dale and Cheryl Mashuga, after engineers certified the work meets FEMA technical standards.
The Morrison County Board approved a conditional use permit for Dale and Cheryl Mashuga to meet FEMA floodproofing requirements for a residential structure using internal floodproofing measures. Land services staff reported that they had received an engineer’s review and certification that the proposed internal floodproofing meets FEMA technical standards. The planning commission had recommended approval with no additional conditions and the board approved the permit after a motion by Commissioner Moran and a second. Why it matters: The permit allows the property owners to comply with FEMA floodproofing requirements, which can affect insurance and rebuilding options for structures in flood-prone areas. The board’s action affirms that the engineering certification satisfied county technical review; no additional county conditions were attached. The board took no further action beyond the conditional-use approval.
