Williston approves vacation of right-of-way and rezoning at 401 2nd Street West for auto sales
Summary
The Board approved vacating a portion of right-of-way, merging two parcels into one 0.35-acre lot at 401 2nd St W, and rezoning the vacated area to C-2 General Commercial for a proposed used auto dealership, contingent on recording a utility easement for an existing watermain and completing hard surfacing and plat recording.
The Board of City Commissioners voted 4-0 on Nov. 12 to approve a subdivision plat and vacation of right-of-way for a property at 401 2nd Street West and to rezone the vacated area to C-2: General Commercial to accommodate a proposed used auto dealership.
City Planner Kent Jarcik explained that after the vacation and merger the site would become a single 0.35-acre lot. He noted an existing water main runs through the property and said the approval is contingent on recording a utility easement for that water main. Planning staff also required that sales and required parking areas be paved with hot-mix asphalt or concrete.
Mayor Howard Klug opened the public hearing and asked for comments three times; hearing none, he closed the hearing. Motion by Tate Cymbaluk, seconded by James Bervig, approved the plat, vacation and zoning change with the contingencies listed. The minutes record the motion as carrying 4-0 with Commissioner Brad Bekkedahl absent.
The action allows the applicant to proceed with recording steps and required surface improvements before a dealership may operate on the property.
