Grant County board approves minutes, 2026 schedule and two variances
Summary
The board approved prior meeting minutes, adopted the regular 2026 meeting schedule and granted variances in two public hearings — one for a storage barn at East 100 South Marion and one for a property on 210 West 9th Street.
The Grant County board approved several routine and substantive items during its meeting.
Board members voted to approve the minutes from the prior meeting and then approved the regular meeting schedule for 2026 as presented. During new business staff said the revised fees schedule from the APC had been presented to county commissioners and published; fee increases were expected to take effect in January pending the required publication period.
In public hearings the board granted a variance to applicant Austin Fosnite to allow placement of a storage barn at East 100 South Marion after the applicant described topographic constraints and a neighbor submitted a letter of support. The board then granted a separate variance (docket 19‑25) to petitioner Roger Randolph for property at 210 West 9th Street; board discussion noted the accessory structure requirement could not be satisfied in one respect because there is no primary dwelling but the board moved and approved the request unanimously after review.
Motions and outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript:
- Approval of minutes: mover recorded as Mr. Adkins; second by Mr. Pearson; roll call recorded affirmative votes and the motion passed. - Approval of 2026 meeting schedule: motion and second passed on roll call. - Variance — Austin Fosnite (docket 023‑0.55074, East 100 South Marion): motion to approve (mover: Ms. Jones; second: Mr. Adkins); roll call recorded affirmative votes; motion passed and variance granted. - Variance — Roger Randolph (docket 19‑25, 210 West 9th Street): motion to approve unconditionally (mover recorded in transcript); roll call recorded affirmative votes and the motion passed; variances granted.
The board closed the hearings on those items and moved on to a multi‑part special‑exception petition that remained under review pending further study.
