Summary

Commissioners unanimously approved a setback variance for Tracts 1–4 of the Wilson and Ariola Addition and a utility-easement setback reduction for Lot 20 of Madison Park Phase II in Lumberton.

Hardin County Commissioners Court unanimously approved two setback variances affecting subdivisions in Lumberton during its Dec. 23 meeting.

The court approved a request submitted by Mr. Adam Kruttlin and Access Surveyors, LLC for setback variances on Tracts 1–4 of the Wilson and Ariola Addition in Precinct 1. Commissioner L.W. Cooper Jr. moved to approve the request; Commissioner Amanda Young seconded, and the motion passed with all five members voting in favor.

Separately, the court approved a request from J.D. Knight Construction, LLC to reduce a utility easement setback from 10 feet to 5 feet on Lot 20 of Madison Park, Phase II (Precinct 3). Commissioner Amanda Young moved for approval; Commissioner Cooper seconded and the vote was unanimous.

Why it matters: the variances allow property owners or developers in Lumberton to proceed with lot-level improvements or utility placements that would not conform to current setback requirements without a variance. The meeting record lists the applicants and the parcels by subdivision name; the court did not record additional conditions or detailed findings in the agenda text.

Next steps: county permitting and inspection staff will process permits consistent with the granted variances.
