Cochran council approves conditional use for in‑home personal care facility at 211 Ash Street
Summary
After a public hearing with no public comments, the Cochran council approved a conditional-use permit for Sherrie Williams to operate an in‑house home care facility at 211 Ash Street. Planning Commission had recommended approval with a condition tying future use to licensing status.
The Cochran City Council approved a conditional‑use permit Dec. 10 allowing Sherrie Williams to operate an in‑house home care facility at 211 Ash Street.
The property is zoned R‑3 residential; council cited Section 4.1 (page 45) of the Cochran Zoning Ordinance, which allows rooming/boarding houses as a conditional use. The Planning Commission reviewed the application on Dec. 5 and voted 5–0 to recommend approval with a condition: if the licensed personal care home ceased operations, the owner must obtain conditional‑use reapproval to continue using the property as a private rooming house. The public hearing drew no public comments and closed at 7:17 PM.
Council Member Gary Ates moved to approve the conditional use and Council Member Lonnie Tedders seconded; the motion carried unanimously. The approval records the Planning Commission’s condition; any required licensing and inspection steps remain prerequisites to operating as a licensed personal care home.
