Platte County staff recommends, commission approves rezoning at 2375 Highway 92

Platte County planning staff recommended and the Planning & Zoning Commission unanimously approved a rezoning of a 3.02‑acre parcel at 2375 Highway 92 on July 21, 2026.

Jason Halterman, assistant director of planning and zoning, told commissioners the Waters Family Trust requested the change to allow a one‑lot minor subdivision that would combine the 3.02‑acre parcel with an adjoining roughly 16.05‑acre parcel. Halterman said the combined 19.5‑acre site would be eligible for a building permit for a single‑family dwelling and that the proposal "does meet these requirements," referring to the rural‑estates district minimums.

Halterman reviewed staff materials submitted for the record, including the Platte County zoning order (1990, as amended), subdivision regulations (1992, as amended), the county land use plan and the roads master plan. He said the proposal meets the rural‑estates minimum lot size (5 acres) and the minimum lot width (400 feet) and that required infrastructure (gravel or better road category, septic suitability and water availability) was satisfied for the proposed configuration.

A commissioner asked a brief clarifying question about an old on‑site pool; Halterman confirmed the pool had been removed. Commissioner (speaker 2) moved to approve the request as presented; the motion was seconded, the chair called for those in favor to raise their hands, and the item "passed unanimously." The record does not show a roll‑call tally.

The decision allows the applicant to proceed toward final platting and building permitting, subject to normal county permitting, surveys and recording requirements. No additional conditions were listed in the record for this rezoning beyond staff recommendation and standard subdivision checks.

The Planning & Zoning Commission’s next regular meeting was announced for August 18, 2026.
