Mitchell commission approves Maui Farms and GL Wild Oak plats, OKs CJ's Bar patio plan
Summary
The Mitchell Zoning Commission approved a plat for Maui Farms, plan approval for an addition at CJ's Bar and two plats for GL Wild Oak LLC (amended certificates and ingress/egress clarifications). All motions carried by voice vote; details and DOT access requirements were noted.
The Mitchell Zoning Commission approved a series of routine land‑use items including a plat for Maui Farms, a plan approval for an addition at CJ’s Bar and two amended plats for GL Wild Oak LLC, all by majority or voice vote during the same meeting.
Why it matters: the approvals move property subdivisions and a commercial plan forward in areas identified in the city’s master plan and allow a small covered patio addition at a highway‑oriented business; one plat includes a note that additional private approaches to the roadway require state DOT approval.
Items approved and key details
Maui Farms plat (lots 2 and 3, Block 2) - Motion to approve carried by voice vote. The applicant proposed splitting lots as shown in the master plan in the PED area near Maui Drive and Sand Street; staff described the request as straightforward.
CJ’s Bar and Casino plan approval (2700 North Main Street) - Motion to approve carried by voice vote. The applicant proposed a 20‑by‑20 covered concrete patio on the east side of the business; the commission approved the addition as a covered—but not enclosed—structure requiring commission approval in the highway‑oriented business district. The applicant was not present at the meeting; staff provided the original plan drawings for reference.
GL Wild Oak LLC plats - Two agenda items for GL Wild Oak LLC were approved, including corrections to owner certificates and added easement and access language. One amended plat clarifies that access to East First Avenue to Lot 2 is approved and that any other approach will require DOT approval. Staff noted the parcels are outside city limits but within the city’s zoning jurisdiction and that county and DOT approvals may also be required. Motions carried as presented and amended.
Voting and process
All four items passed by voice vote or unanimous recorded voice vote; no detailed roll‑call tallies were recorded in the streamed minutes for these items. Staff said the plats met all applicable requirements as amended and that plan review for building or paving associated with the plats will follow normal administrative procedures.
Ending
The commission also discussed progress on a wider rework of the zoning code and said it will review district maps and definitions in an upcoming work session. With no additional public input, the meeting was adjourned.
