Huerfano County OKs lot-line vacation for Marle applicants with deed restriction
Summary
The Huerfano County Board of County Commissioners approved land-use application 26-011 to consolidate two parcels for John and Suzanne Marle, accepting the Planning Commission recommendation that the consolidated parcel carry a deed restriction preventing future subdivision.
The Huerfano County Board of County Commissioners voted to approve land-use application 26-011 on June 9, 2016, allowing John and Suzanne Marle to consolidate two parcels and remove certain lot and utility easements.
Planning staff told the board the application, received from Southern Colorado Surveying and Mapping, was noticed to referral agencies and adjacent property owners, and that no objections were returned. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on June 11 and recommended approval with a condition: a deed restriction forbidding future subdivision of the consolidated parcel.
“On recommendation from the Planning Commission, we require a deed restriction so the lot cannot be subdivided in the future,” a county staff member said, explaining the condition applied in prior similar cases. Commissioners moved and approved the lot-line vacation with that deed-restriction condition.
The staff report included procedural details: the applicants paid a $200 application fee and $50.98 for public noticing; the proposal cited county code section 11-15 for consolidated plats and referenced state statute CRS 43-2-301 in the materials provided to the board. The consolidated parcel was described in staff materials as containing a planned single residence amid an urbanized residential area.
The board’s action was limited to approval of the lot-line vacation and the deed restriction; no other land-use approvals or variances were granted. The motion carried by voice vote.
