Houston County approves two conditional‑use permits and appoints Lane Zafke to Extension Committee
Loading...
Summary
The board approved conditional‑use permits for a nonfarm dwelling (Bashoff) and a cabin (Barta Family Trust), each recommended by the planning commission with conditions, and appointed Lane Zafke to a one‑year term on the Houston County Extension Committee.
The Houston County Board of Commissioners approved two conditional‑use permits after planning‑commission recommendations and appointed Lane Zafke to the Houston County Extension Committee.
Planning staff told the board the Bashoff application is for a nonfarm single‑family dwelling on a parcel currently about 50 acres that the applicant plans to split to roughly 20 acres; soils and quarter‑quarter boundary review addressed neighbor concerns and the planning commission recommended approval with two standard conditions plus one requiring a separate interim use permit if a home occupation moves from city limits to the rural site. The board moved, seconded and approved the permit by voice vote.
Staff also presented a permit for the Barta Family Trust to allow a cabin on a roughly 42‑acre parcel in Looney Valley off Traf Drive. Staff described a constrained building envelope and recommended two standard conditions; the board approved the permit after noting there was no public comment in the planning packet or at the hearing.
On appointments, the board appointed Lane Zafke to a one‑year term on the Houston County Extension Committee, with the term to run from the appointment date through 12/31/2028 (transcript listed '12/3128', corrected here for clarity). All items were approved by voice vote.
