Bonneville County commissioners approve rezoning for Ammon‑area parcel at 2855 East Lincoln Road

The Bonneville County Board of Commissioners on May 14 approved a rezoning that will change a 0.571‑acre parcel at 2855 East Lincoln Road, in the Ammon area of impact, from residential‑agricultural (RA1) to industrial (IN1), county planning staff said.

Michelle Hagen, a Planning and Zoning staff member, told the board the parcel is listed in the county packet as part of case 26‑0574 and that staff found the proposal complies with the comprehensive plan and the county zoning ordinance. "It complies with the comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, public health, safety and welfare as well as no anticipated fiscal impact," Hagen said. The Planning & Zoning Commission held a public hearing on March 25, 2026 and recommended approval unanimously, Hagen added.

The application, filed by TBD Properties LLC and typically represented by Corey Bingham, requests changing the land‑use designation from RA1 to IN1; the staff report notes the property is currently developed with a single‑family dwelling and lies east of 25th East. The staff packet also included an exhibit from the City of Ammon about possible annexation, which staff placed in the record for commissioners to consider.

During public comment, Vince Caulkins, who identified himself as the owner of the adjacent elevator property at 3992 Willow Ridge, said he had "no issues on our side" and that he attended to hear details of the proposal. No members of the public testified in opposition at the Planning & Zoning hearing, the staff report said.

After closing the public hearing, a commissioner moved to accept the board's findings, conclusions and decision to approve the rezoning in case 26‑0574; another commissioner seconded the motion and the chair announced the motion carried. The transcript does not record a roll‑call tally in the public record.

The board read and adopted findings of fact, law and decision for May 14, 2026 and advised the applicant of appeal rights under local ordinance (code 1‑501) and Idaho law, including procedures for requesting a regulatory taking analysis and judicial review under Idaho Code and the Idaho Rules of Civil Procedure.

The approval allows the property owner to seek permits and further approvals consistent with the IN1 zoning and any applicable annexation or city review processes; the staff report and Planning & Zoning recommendation are part of the official record for case 26‑0574.
