Yankton County planning commission approves plats, combines lots and completes brief meeting
Summary
Commissioners approved several plats — including a five-acre ag-business split, a property owner’s small parcel purchase to expand an entrance, a lot combination to allow an accessory structure, and an ETJ plat previously approved by the city — and adjourned after routine business.
The Yankton County Planning Commission approved multiple plats and routine business in a short meeting.
Commissioners approved a plat that splits a roughly 17-acre tract to create a five-acre parcel to be sold to a grain company for storage under an agricultural-business exception; staff noted a deed restriction will prohibit dwellings on that newly created ag business parcel. The commission also approved a small conveyance allowing a landowner to buy a sliver from a neighbor to expand a driveway entrance, saying the change would improve safe access.
Other approvals included combining two existing lots into a single parcel to permit an accessory structure and a courtesy approval of a plat located in the county’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) that the city had already approved. Staff said the ETJ action was primarily a formality.
The meeting opened with roll call and approval of minutes and the agenda, and closed with no public comment and a motion to adjourn. All motions on the agenda were carried by voice or roll-call votes as recorded on the transcript.
