M and M Ranch subdivision approved with site‑specific conditions; applicants present at meeting

Weber County planning staff recommended final approval Tuesday of the two‑lot M and M Ranch subdivision, a proposed split near the north edge of the county close to the Box Elder County boundary.

A planning staff presenter described the proposal as a two‑lot split that meets the A‑1 zoning site‑development standards. The presenter told the meeting that Lot 1 and Lot 2 meet zone minimums and that culinary water will be provided by the Bonner Vista Water Cleaning District; the applicant supplied proof of water rights from the River Basin Water Conservancy District, the presenter said. Each lot will use an on‑site septic system, and septic feasibility letters for both parcels are included in the planning file, the presenter added.

The staff presenter flagged a 26‑foot cross‑access easement shown on the plat that benefits Lot 1 and runs through Lot 2; the applicants confirmed the easement is for shared access. Applicants Christina Miller and Brad Miller spoke at the meeting, describing plans for the daughter to build on one lot and describing the shared access arrangement. Christina Miller said the family has been preparing to build and that they sold a previous house during the pandemic and have been renting since.

Staff recommended final approval subject to the conditions and findings in the staff report and asked the applicants to work with planning staff to complete remaining items before recording. The chair recommended approval and stated the item stands approved; the transcript does not include a roll‑call vote or a vote tally.

The planning file includes the plat, septic feasibility letters and documentation of the applicant’s water rights; staff directed the applicants to complete outstanding items with planning staff before recording.
