Summary

Following a positive planning commission recommendation, the county commission changed zoning on about 30 acres near Lower Miller Creek to allow a seven‑lot subdivision (lots ~160 feet wide); commissioners noted drainage constraints and that wash areas cannot be filled.

Planning staff described a proposed zone change from RR‑2.5 to RR‑0.2 on a parcel just south of Ridge Road along Lower Miller Creek to allow seven lots on roughly 30 acres, with the smallest lot around 1.2 acres and lot widths near 160 feet. "He wants to do 7 lots... the planning commission gave a positive recommendation for the zone change," planning staff said during the presentation.

Commissioners discussed setbacks, the depth of some lots, and the need to avoid filling drainage washes; after discussion the commission approved the zone change, noting the planning commission’s positive recommendation and site constraints that builders must respect.
