Board referral sends minimum lot-size review to Planning Commission; staff to draft language
Summary
The Board of Supervisors referred minimum lot-size standards for Family Subdivisions in several zoning districts to the Planning Commission; staff will prepare draft language and commissioners have until Dec. 28 to make a recommendation.
On Sept. 19 Planning Commission staff reported that the Board of Supervisors on Sept. 11 unanimously referred proposed minimum lot sizes for Family Subdivisions in the General Agricultural, Village Center and General Residential zoning districts to the Planning Commission for review.
Staff reviewed the existing regulations, presented a tally of properties in General Residential served by town utilities, and highlighted related regulatory items to consider such as frontage and setbacks. Commissioners discussed alternative language and additional issues staff raised that would need clarification. Administrator Dan Witt confirmed no action was required immediately and staff noted the commission has until Dec. 28 to hold a public hearing and make a recommendation to the Board.
By consensus, commissioners asked staff to provide draft ordinance language at the next meeting to give the Planning Commission a clear starting point for review and discussion. Staff also provided written updates on solar projects, conditional use permits and upcoming training opportunities.
