Town of Greenbush approves rezoning for 35-acre County Road U parcel
Summary

The Town of Greenbush approved rezoning for a 35-acre parcel at N6301 County Road U (Parcel No. 59002004410) from agricultural A1 to A5, clearing the way for construction of a house while maintaining the remainder of the land for agriculture or hunting and recreation. The Planning Commission had recommended A5 after noting county soil testing and letters of support from neighbors.
At the Planning Commission public hearing, audience members suggested C1 zoning, but the applicant requested A5 and commission soil and location review scoring supported A5. The commission approved the application on a motion by Miles Shaw, seconded by Michelle Kreidler. The Town Board later approved the rezoning on a motion made and seconded by board members; the roll-call vote was unanimous.
The parcel was described at the hearing as roughly 40% used for agriculture and 60% for hunting and recreation. County soil testing results previously submitted were cited in the commission record; a survey requirement was not specified in the board action. The action is recorded as an approval of the requested A5 rezoning; no amendments or conditions were listed in the board minutes.
The rezoning clears the way for a building permit application for a single-family home on the parcel; the town record does not specify a construction timeline or proposed homeowner. The Planning Commission and Town Board files will contain the formal ordinance and clerk’s records of the vote.
