Summary
At its May 20 meeting, the Silver Creek Township Board of Planning and Zoning approved a conditional use permit for Randall Stoick, rezoned PID 216-000-114100 for Skies Limit LLC with shoreland restrictions and approved a township road; several members abstained on separate votes.
Chairman Chris Klein and the Silver Creek Township Board of Planning and Zoning approved a conditional use permit for Randall Stoick and voted to rezone a parcel owned by Skies Limit LLC at their May 20, 2025 meeting. The board also approved a township road connected to the rezoned parcel; several members recorded abstentions on separate votes.
The board first approved the meeting agenda on a motion by Mark Egge, seconded by Tom Vanek, which carried 10-0. Ryan Nelson moved to approve the May 6, 2025 meeting minutes; Jesse Dickinson seconded. The minutes were recorded as approved 6-0, with Mike Helman, Mark Egge, Brandon Geyen and Justin Hall listed as abstaining.
On the conditional use permit, Mike Helman moved to approve the CUP request for parcel PID 216-100-333100 “as written.” Brandon Geyen seconded; the motion is recorded as carried 9-0, with Jesse Dickinson abstaining. The minutes list Randall Stoick in connection with the CUP request.
The board then considered a rezoning request for PID 216-000-114100 brought by Skies Limit LLC. Chairman Chris Klein moved to rezone the parcel from Agricultural to Agricultural Residential with a shoreland district overlay, to disallow a planned unit development (PUD) on the concept plan, and to change the concept plan to prohibit back-lot lake access. Mark Egge seconded; the motion is recorded as carried 9-0, with Sandy Forsman abstaining. The minutes note attached letters and petitions from residents raising concerns about the request.
Immediately after the rezoning vote, Chairman Klein moved to approve a township road beginning at Lot 1 and built to township road specifications; Egge seconded. That motion likewise is recorded as carried 9-0 with Forsman abstaining.
The meeting concluded after a motion by Brandon Geyen, seconded by Jesse Dickinson, to adjourn. The minutes record no further substantive discussion or recorded public testimony at the meeting itself. Attached to the minutes are letters and petitions from residents expressing concerns about the Skies Limit LLC rezoning; the minutes do not record responses or details of any follow-up actions regarding those concerns.
