Planning Commission grants two‑year extension for Bone Ranch subdivision
Summary
The commission approved a two‑year extension for the Bone Ranch subdivision (files MOD‑1‑15 / DDP‑1‑10). Developer Leroy Blodgett told commissioners ownership transition was smooth and construction likely won’t begin until next spring; motion carried unanimously.
The Brookings Planning Commission on Feb. 3 approved a two‑year extension for the Bone Ranch subdivision, allowing the developer additional time to finalize engineering and tie infrastructure into city services.
Planning staff presented the extension request for file numbers noted in the staff report (referred to in the transcript as MOD‑1‑15 and DDP‑1‑10) and recommended approval because work remains in progress, including civil engineering submittals and infrastructure coordination. The applicant’s representative, Leroy Blodgett, said the project is “a large, large project” with several engineers and consultants involved and that, because of an ownership transition, “it’s probably gonna be probably not this summer. It’s gonna be the following spring before we actually start moving dirt.”
Commissioners discussed progress milestones and the city’s infrastructure package needed to connect Lone Ranch to city services. Based on staff’s recommendation and the developer’s update, a commissioner moved to approve the two‑year extension; the motion carried on recorded voice vote.
The extension preserves the developer’s conditional approvals while permitting staff and the developer to continue work on final engineering and permitting steps.
