Summary

Planning and zoning presented a draft to exempt certain homes and swaps from CUP requirements—proposals include no CUP for modular or stick-built homes on lots of one acre or more and relaxed acreage triggers; the commission will forward the draft to the county attorney for review.

Planning and zoning presented a draft set of changes to the conditional-use permit (CUP) process during the April 28 work session. The draft would narrow instances where a CUP is required—for example, it would not require a CUP for a modular home or stick-built home on parcels of one acre or more, nor for certain exchanges of mobile/modular/stick-built homes on established lots. Planning staff also emphasized that all health-department requirements, permits, and zoning standards would still apply.

County Manager Thomas Weaver said the planning board will forward the draft language to County Attorney Bin Minter for legal review before further Commission discussion. Samantha Hedgecoke (community development) summarized the planning-board recommendations and asked that the commission keep the item on the work-session schedule while legal review proceeds.
