Summary
The commission recommended approval (6-0) of Lamont Peterson’s application to reclassify 150.68 acres from Agricultural Forestry to Rural Residential 20 near 11309 61st Ave SW in May Township, finding the request consistent with surrounding land use and shoreland planning criteria.
At its Jan. 12, 2026 meeting the Cass County Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of a reclassification request submitted by Lamont Peterson to convert 150.68 acres from Agricultural Forestry to Rural Residential 20. Staff reported 27 mailed notices and no public comments; the commission’s written findings cited consistency with natural area preservation, topography, soils, and adjacent land uses.
The recommendation is subject to formal processing under Section 707 of the county Land Use Ordinance and will proceed through required administrative steps. The minutes record no conditions beyond the standard reclassification findings; implementation requires the usual ordinance and recording steps.
