Summary

Morton County commissioners approved the final plat and a zoning change from Agricultural to Residential for the Catherines Castle Subdivision, subject to septic upgrades approved by Western Plains Public Health and a utility crossing permit from the county highway department before recording.

Morton County commissioners approved the final plat for the short-form subdivision called Catherines Castle Subdivision and a zoning map amendment from Agricultural to Residential on April 11.

Commissioner Zachmeier moved to approve the plat and zoning amendment, and Commissioner Buckley seconded. The approval was conditioned on two requirements before the plat may be recorded: the applicant must update the septic system to the satisfaction of Western Plains Public Health, and the applicant must apply for a utility crossing permit with the Morton County Highway Department. The commission found the subdivision conforms to Article 7 of the Morton County Land Use Code and to the land-use priorities in the Morton County 2045 Comprehensive Plan.

No vote tally beyond “all voting aye” is recorded in the minutes for this item. The conditions place responsibility on the applicant to secure health and highway approvals before recording the final plat.
