Summary
The commission voted to postpone consideration of the 2025 proposed amendments to the 2006 Leavenworth County zoning and subdivision regulations (Case DEV 25 1 32) to allow staff, the county administrator and commissioners to review language and public materials, following public comment and questions about video availability and frontage percentage clarifications.
County staff presented proposed 2025 amendments to the 2006 Leavenworth County zoning and subdivision regulations (Case DEV 25 1 32). The planning commission had recommended approval with three modifications, including corrections to frontage-percentage language for cul‑de‑sac and curved lots.
During discussion a public commenter and several commissioners said the meeting video of earlier hearings might not be publicly available and asked for the county administrator to be present. Because lingering questions remained, a motion was made to continue the matter for two weeks to allow full review with all key players present. The motion carried and the item will return to the commission at a later meeting for final action.
No amendments were adopted at this meeting; staff will bring corrected language and the county administrator to the rescheduled hearing to answer outstanding questions.
