Carroll County approves zoning reclassifications for roughly 20 parcels in Glidden/Carroll two-mile area

The Carroll County Board of Supervisors voted to approve zoning reclassifications for roughly 20 parcels formerly included under a county agreement with the cities of Glidden and Carroll. The board opened and closed a public hearing at 9:00 a.m. and then approved the zoning board's recommendation.

County staff member Courtney (full name not specified) told the board she had received one written public comment from someone identified as Sarah and one phone comment from Leon Mortemont; Mortemont asked that advertised notices include properties in the three-mile ad area rather than another zone. No speakers attended the hearing to make in-person comments, and the board closed the hearing at 9:01 a.m.

The board then moved to consider the zoning reclassifications. A supervisor made a motion to approve the zoning board's recommendation; the motion was seconded and carried. No roll-call tally was recorded in the hearing transcript excerpt; the clerk announced “Motion carries.”

The county clerk declined to read the complete list of owners and parcel numbers into the record, saying there were roughly 20 parcels and that the reclassifications were “pretty much identical” to what had been in place when the county had an agreement with the city of Glidden and the city of Carroll. The board did not provide additional detail about individual parcels during the meeting.

Because the board approved the zoning board's recommendation without additional amendments, the county will implement the reclassifications as recommended by the zoning board. The transcript does not record a timetable for when administrative updates to maps or property records will be completed.

Speakers identified in the record: Courtney (staff member), Sarah (comment submitter), and Leon Mortemont (resident/commenter). The transcript does not provide full last names or official titles for Courtney or Sarah.
