Commission recommends consolidation of three Booth parcels and approves yurt building permit

The Planning Commission voted Nov. 21 to recommend that the Town Council approve consolidation of three contiguous Booth parcels (parcel numbers 241170001, 241170002, 241170003). Dave Booth and Gina (appearing in packet as Gina Myrberg) presented the consolidation request and said they may consider future development options after consolidation. The Commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to the Town Council for final action; signatures of each parcel owner were included in the application packet.

Separately, the Commission granted a Land Use Permit for a new building on Parcel #241170003, described by the applicant as a yurt roughly 41 feet in diameter. The approval was recorded as being “subject to change with consolidation”; Chairman Endicott moved for approval and PCM Poulter seconded. Commissioners emphasized that the yurt location and final lot configuration may change slightly depending on the consolidation’s final recorded legal description. The submitted deeds and survey attachments in the packet identify the three parcels and a combined legal description; the deed language indicates the owner’s intent to combine the parcels into a single parcel.

Because the consolidation and the new building interact with lot lines and setbacks, staff will coordinate title and recording instructions with the applicant. The Commission instructed the applicant to record consolidation deeds to effect the consolidation after Council approval and to provide updated site plans if the lot geometry changes.
