A resident asked the county to reconsider how Planned Unit Developments (PUDs) function under A-2 zoning, saying the current interpretation could bypass regional planning review and obligate the county to accept developer-built roads if they meet county standards.

The resident, a property owner speaking during public comment, said that because a parcel is zoned A-2, the owner believes they have permitted rights by use and therefore "we no longer have to go through regional planning." The speaker described a scenario in which a property owner could build a road across "8, 7 lots" to county standards and then the county would have "the responsibility to accept that dedicated road because I incurred the cost to develop it." The speaker urged the board to "reevaluate this PUD," noting the PUD is referenced multiple times in the county comprehensive plan and asking whether there is a way to revisit the rules.

Why it matters: county rules on PUDs and road dedication affect how new development is reviewed, how infrastructure is accepted for maintenance, and who bears costs for road construction and long-term upkeep.
