Summary

The commission granted preliminary plat approval for the Crinklehorn subdivision — a four-lot division totaling about 28 acres with proposed 7.13-acre lots — subject to 14 standard conditions and sanitation review for all lots.

Planning staff presented the Crinklehorn subdivision near Fortine, a proposed four-lot division of a ~28-acre parcel into lots of roughly 7.13 acres each. Staff noted that soils are not considered prime farmland, utilities are available along Crystal Lake Road, and anticipated trips per day can be accommodated on the existing paved county road. The staff recommendation called for sanitation review for all lots and 14 standard conditions; commissioners approved preliminary plat status.

Staff emphasized sanitation review and the need for DNRC groundwater appropriation authorization prior to final plat. The staff report recorded the lot sizes as 7.13 acres and highlighted a low fire-risk finding from the fire-risk evaluator. The commission approved the preliminary plat by voice vote.
