Commissioners approve 20‑foot north setback variance for property owner Larry Mafy
Summary
Montezuma County commissioners adopted a resolution approving a setback variance that reduces the north‑side setback to 20 feet for a property owner, with the resolution number to be assigned by the clerk. The board moved, seconded and voted to approve following presentation of the factors considered.
The Montezuma County Board of County Commissioners voted March 3 to approve a setback variance request submitted by property owner Larry Mafy, reducing the required north‑side setback to 20 feet. The board signed related paperwork and directed the clerk to assign a resolution number at the clerk’s convenience.
Planning staff presented the variance and supporting factors during the meeting; the board discussed that the variance applies only to the north side while the south side setback remains at 30 feet. A resolution drafted for the board summarized the factors considered and the motion to adopt the resolution was moved, seconded and carried.
The action was administrative: commissioners signed the resolution and documents to record the variance. The resolution number was not available at the meeting; meeting materials indicate the clerk will record the final number and the signed documents.
What happens next: staff will file and record the signed resolution and amended plat documents as required by county procedures. Any conditions attached to the variance were included in the resolution language reviewed at the meeting.
Officials and speakers: Larry Mafy (applicant) and planning staff presented the request; the board voted on the resolution. No public comment on the item was recorded during the meeting.
