Grand Forks County commissioners approve two-lot plat near County Roads 10 and 15
Summary
The board unanimously approved a two-lot plat (Patrick Hider Farmstead addition) with conditioned placement of a 75-foot county road right-of-way and township recommendations to be received before recording.
Grand Forks County commissioners on an undisclosed April date voted unanimously to approve a two-lot plat dubbed the Patrick Hider Farmstead addition, a staff presentation said.
The plat splits a building site on a 13.22-acre parcel near the intersection of County Road 10 and County Road 15 into two lots (described in staff notes as about 6.34 acres and 8.88 acres). The planning staff told the board the land is in the county's agricultural preservation district and ‘‘conforms to the goals and policies of [the] land use plan’’ and to applicable zoning performance standards.
Staff and the planning commission recommended approval subject to two conditions: township recommendations must be received before the plat is recorded, and the plat must show a 75-foot county road right-of-way along County Road 10 consistent with current county commission policy, staff said. The applicant will continue to share existing access and ‘‘no additional accesses would be permitted to the road,’’ the staff presentation said.
A commissioner moved and a colleague seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The motion and approval included the conditions listed above. The record did not show individual roll-call votes.
The planning staff noted City of Niagara lies about nine miles southwest of the parcel for geographic reference. No other permits or applications were identified on the record during the discussion.
The action closes the county review step that the planning commission had recommended to the board. Any future building permits, driveway permits or other county approvals required for development on the new lots will be subject to applicable county regulations and review at the time of application.
