Planning and zoning commission reports applications, moves to continue Title 19 review
Summary
Chairman Jeff Haskins told the Rawlins City Council the Planning and Zoning Commission handled multiple special-use and zone-change applications in 2024 and will continue work on Title 19 and micro-living projects in 2025.
Jeff Haskins, chairman of the Rawlins Planning and Zoning Commission, presented the commission’s annual report to the city council on April 15, describing applications processed in 2024 and the commission’s priorities for 2025.
Haskins said the commission has seven members and recapped 2024 activity: "There are 7 members of our board. 25 or 20 25 activities we're gonna be working on Title 19 and continue working with micro living homes to help their project to be successful. And in 2024 we had 6 special use permit applications, 2 zone change applications, 1 discussion on Title 19, and total of 8 applications to the planning and zoning commission," he said.
Haskins listed recent approvals council had taken up, including a special-use permit approved March 5 for Dr. Kathy Holmes to open a veterinary clinic and two approved special-use permits for daycare operations. He also reported a special-use permit from Union Wireless for a new tower proposed on Water Tower Hill and said the Bureau of Land Management sought rezoning of property south of town; one BLM application was tabled by council.
Why it matters: updates to Title 19 would change the city’s zoning code and affect future developments, and the commission’s review of micro-living homes and tower applications could alter project permitting and siting decisions.
Ending: Haskins told the council the commission looks forward to a productive 2025 and provided thank-you notes to council members for their support.
