Commissioners lift agricultural covenant on Holcomb Tract 2B, clearing way for residential build
Summary
Roosevelt County commissioners approved lifting an agricultural covenant on a 30.3-acre Holcomb Tract 2B single-lot subdivision north of Bainville, allowing the property owner to construct a residence subject to conditions in the county planning report.
The Roosevelt County Board of Commissioners voted to approve lifting an agricultural covenant on the Holcomb Tract 2B single-lot minor subdivision, a 30.3-acre parcel located about 8.5 miles north of Bainville. County Planner Casey Burke told commissioners the covenant currently restricts residential construction and that lifting it would allow the property owner to build a home, subject to conditions enumerated in the county planning staff report.
Commissioner Gordon Oelkers moved to lift the covenant, Commissioner Doug Marottek seconded, and the motion passed. The item was presented as an administrative action under the county’s subdivision and land-use authority; the planning staff report contains the conditions placed on the approval. The minutes record no public opposition during the meeting.
The decision changes the parcel’s development options but does not itself change zoning; any building will still need to comply with applicable permits and county regulations. The commissioners did not discuss a timeline for development during the meeting.
