Levan planning commission conditionally approves two home permits pending wastewater approval

The Levan Planning Commission on May 7 approved two single‑family home building permits, but both approvals were made expressly contingent on the applicants receiving outstanding wastewater permits.

Nathan, a member of the planning commission, moved to approve the permit for applicant Hans Olsen "pending the wastewater permit being approved;" Rachel seconded the motion and commissioners recorded unanimous assent. Commissioners reviewed Olsen’s plans, described in the record as a one‑story, three‑bedroom home of roughly 1,500 square feet with a covered porch and crawlspace foundation, and asked staff to confirm foundation and setback measurements during inspection before a certificate of occupancy is issued.

The commission also reviewed an application filed under the name Briggs & Ludlow for a lot near the Taylor Bryant trailer park. Commissioners discussed that the lot shows 99 feet of frontage and that the proposed garage appears set back about 30 feet from the road. Staff told the commission Briggs & Ludlow had applied for wastewater but did not yet have the final permit, and the commission moved to approve the building permit contingent on the wastewater permit being issued. That motion was seconded and carried by oral 'aye' votes recorded in the meeting record.

Both approvals were conditional: the commission explicitly tied final permit acceptance to each applicant obtaining the required wastewater permit before further work proceeds. The meeting record does not list individual roll‑call votes; the transcript records the motions, seconds and oral assent but does not name each member’s vote.

Next steps: applicants must obtain their wastewater permits and coordinate with town inspection staff for verification of setbacks, foundation type and any other outstanding plan details before construction proceeds.
