Sisters request split of 7.79 acres in Commerce to settle estate
Summary
Rita Croy, on behalf of Roxy Turpin, asked to split a 7.79-acre parcel on Loop Road into two R‑1 lots so a family home can be sold and the sister can retain the other lot; staff confirmed road frontage and character-area consistency with the county plan.
Rita Croy, applicant for Roxy Turpin, asked Madison County to rezone and split a 7.79-acre parcel at 585 Loop Road in Commerce from R to R‑1 in order to create a 3.347-acre lot to sell and a 3.474-acre lot to retain while settling an estate.
Planning staff advised the commission the parcel currently contains two homes: one is the decedent’s house that the applicants want to sell, and the other is the home Rita Croy occupies and intends to continue living in. Staff said Track 1 (the lot to be sold) would have 50 feet of road frontage and Track 2 would have 420 feet. Staff said the R‑1 zoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan for the Madaco West character area even though there are no surrounding R‑1 properties immediately adjacent.
Commission discussion focused on clarifying which lot would be sold and which would be retained; no public opposition or formal action is recorded in the supplied transcript excerpt. The item was presented as part of the county’s June 17, 2025 zoning public hearing docket.
