Loading...
Summary
Staff described a proposal for a detached accessory family housing unit on 2.777 acres at 1884 Broad Street Road (tax map 3210540); the applicant was not present, the property owner Terry Honaker spoke, and the commission voted 4–0 to recommend approval subject to staff conditions and scheduled the case for the Board of Supervisors on June 2, 2026.
The commission opened a public hearing on a conditional use permit request for a detached accessory family housing unit at 1884 Broad Street Road in District 3. Assistant Planning Director Carrie Ragland presented the staff report, describing the 2.777-acre parcel (tax map 3210540), the A-2 agricultural zoning, and the comprehensive plan designation of rural enhancement. Staff’s presentation noted surrounding residential uses, existing outbuildings on the property, a proposed new dwelling of roughly 2,000–3,000 square feet and a new septic drain field, and recommended standard county conditions for accessory family dwellings, including use/access conditions and standard expiration and transfer language (a 10-year CUP expiration) in accordance with county zoning code provisions cited in the staff report.
Ragland said the applicants (Rebecca and Christopher Miller) were not present; the property owner, Terry Honaker, identified himself and told the commission he was available to answer questions. No members of the public attended to comment on the case beyond the owner.
A commissioner moved that the commission recommend approval of the CUP subject to the conditions presented by staff; another commissioner seconded the motion. The commissioners were polled by name and each recorded an aye vote (Mister Kimberly; Mister Patak; Miss Kowalski; Mister McLaughlin). The motion to recommend approval passed 4–0. The case was tentatively scheduled for the Board of Supervisors on June 2, 2026.
Staff noted that the CUP conditions include standard limitations that the detached accessory family housing unit be limited to family members of the principal dwelling and that the CUP will expire in 10 years unless otherwise addressed at building permit or by further action.
The commission adjourned following the vote.
