Summary

Following a staff presentation and applicant comment, the Lincoln County Commission approved rezoning roughly 2.07 acres in the Quonset Addition from I-1 (light industrial) to A-1 (agricultural) to allow use of a building eligibility for a single-family home.

County planning staff Toby Ron presented a request to rezone about 2.07 acres in the Quonset Addition (near the Harrisburg exit) from I-1 Light Industrial to A-1 Agricultural to permit use of an existing building eligibility for a single-family dwelling. Ron said the site includes floodplain and a small buildable area and that staff and adjacent municipalities concluded the most restrictive approach would be downzoning to A-1.

Applicant Kelly Coughlin said the parcel has limited buildable area due to Nine Mile Creek and that the family wants to place a house on the lot because they are "getting older" and want a place to live. Toby noted the planning commission unanimously recommended approval; after limited discussion the board voted to approve the rezoning by roll call.

The approval allows the landowner to use the previously purchased building eligibility to construct a single-family residence subject to applicable county building and floodplain regulations.
