Commission denies setback variance and tables Bear River Grove Acres subdivision request
Summary
The commission denied a setback variance request from property owner Conner Dewitt and tabled the Bear River Grove Acres standard subdivision for Bruce and Janeen Lamont because required irrigation documentation was not provided.
A homeowner and a subdivision applicant each received decisions from the Franklin County Commissioners on March 23: the commission denied a setback variance request and tabled a subdivision application for lack of required documentation.
Conner Dewitt, who lives on 7200 West in Weston Canyon, requested a variance to place a shop closer to the road than the residence; he provided pictures for the commissioners. Commissioners emphasized consistency with existing setbacks and discussed placing the shop against the property line as an alternative. Commissioner Zan Bowles moved to deny the variance; Chair Robert Swainston seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
On the Bear River Grove Acres standard subdivision for Bruce and Janeen Lamont, surveyor Tim Christensen and planning staff Randy Henrie and Shauna Geddes attended. The record notes that Janeen Lamont was expected to provide a letter from the irrigation company but did not appear. Commissioners tabled the subdivision until the next meeting to allow the applicant time to supply the missing irrigation documentation.
Both items were decided in open session; the commission recorded no public comment on these agenda items in the transcript.
