Leavenworth County Planning Commission approves lot-depth exception for DEV-25-066
Summary
The Leavenworth County Planning Commission approved an exception to the lot depth-to-width ratio for Tract 1 in case DEV-25-066, allowing the lot to remain as drawn despite exceeding the 1:4 depth-to-width standard.
The Leavenworth County Planning Commission approved an exception to the lot depth-to-width requirement for case DEV-25-066 by an 8-0 roll call during its meeting. The exception applies to Tract 1, which exceeds the 1:4 lot depth-to-width ratio by approximately 1,220 feet.
Planning staff told commissioners that the request is for an exception to Article 50, Section 40.3.i of the county zoning and subdivision regulations, and that further analysis appears on page 2 of the staff report. Staff said Tract 2 as proposed meets the minimum RR-5 zoning district requirements and that, if the three criteria for an exception are met, the request would be in conformance with regulations.
No applicant presentation was made beyond the staff report. A commissioner moved to find that the criteria for the exception had been met and to approve it; the motion passed on a roll call vote with all eight voting yes (Marcus Major; Alan Stewart; Robert Owens; Steve [last name inaudible]; Doug Tyson; Daniel Clemens; Jaden Bailey; Joshua Zenger).
Commission staff later clarified that this approval is an administrative-level exception handled at the planning commission level and does not advance to the Board of County Commissioners.
