Commissioners record no support for proposal to allow contractor industrial uses in Workforce Home Business zone
Summary
A proposed amendment (AMD2025-0001) to allow Light and Heavy Industry contractor businesses as conditional uses in portions of the Workforce Home Business zone near S. Highway 89 failed to receive board support as recorded in the minutes; the minutes indicate none voted in favor and record a 0-4 tally with one abstention.
The board considered AMD2025-0001, a proposed text amendment to the Teton County Land Development Regulations to add Light and Heavy Industry contractor uses to the Workforce Home Business (WHB) zone in portions near S. Highway 89 (Hog Island area). Associate Long-Range Planner Erin Monroe presented the proposal and answered questions; the applicant’s representative Alex Norton (OPS Strategies) gave a presentation and multiple public commenters addressed the board.
After discussion, the minutes record that the motion to approve AMD2025-0001 showed "none in favor." The minutes also state the tally as "0-4, with Commissioner Len Carlman abstaining," which—taken together with the board discussion—indicates the proposal did not receive support from the commissioners. The minutes do not list an adopted amendment or any follow-up direction to staff.
Speakers at the public comment portion included Trevor Allen, Scott Anderson, Johnny Zeem, Mike Mielke, Elisabeth Eastman and others who presented concerns or support on the record. The board did not adopt the requested LDR change at this meeting.
