Glendale planning board approves lot combination; rezoning to commercial required
Summary
The Glendale Planning and Zoning Board approved a lot-combination request for applicant Kade Iverson on March 11, 2026, but determined the parcels’ differing zoning means the smaller, rear parcel must be rezoned to commercial before a legal lot combination can occur. Staff will post notices and the chair will carry the motion to the town board.
The Glendale Planning and Zoning Board voted March 11 to approve a lot-combination request for property owned by Kade Iverson, while concluding the application will require a zoning change before the parcels can be legally joined.
Board members discussed a proposal to join two contiguous pieces of property that currently carry different designations: the lower parcel is classified commercial and the narrow upper parcel is classified residential (identified in the discussion as residential agriculture). Kade Iverson, the applicant, was not at the meeting in person but was reached by phone by staff member Lori Jensen and confirmed that combining the two lots would require the entire parcel to carry commercial zoning.
Board members noted the town’s title searches revealed no recorded rights-of-way in the available documents and that staff had located only an electrical permit for the property. The board said more information is needed about past activities and permits on the site and instructed the applicant to submit a formal application and pay the required fee to start the public-notice and rezoning process.
Staff described the next steps and timeline the board expects to follow: staff will prepare and post certified letters and public notices (letters to be prepared by the 23rd and mailed by the 24th) to meet the town’s 14-day notice requirement prior to returning the item to a future Planning & Zoning meeting for a zoning-hearing and final consideration. Planning and Zoning Chair Raleigh Franklin said he will take the motion passed by the board to the town board for approval; if the town board approves the zone change, the item will return to Planning & Zoning for a hearing and final lot-combination approval.
A motion to approve the lot-combination process and proceed with the required notices and applications was made and seconded; “All in favor voted ‘AYE’ — MOTION PASSED,” the board recorded. The meeting then moved to adjournment.
Next steps: the applicant must submit the correct application and pay the fee to initiate posting and certified-mail notification. The town will schedule the formal rezoning notice and hearing once public notices meet the 14-day requirement.
