Board approves McPherson zone change with environmental and manure-management conditions
Summary
The Board approved Petition #2025-40 to rezone 20 acres from A1 to R6 in the Town of North Bend for a single-family home, attaching conditions covering manure management, setbacks and Land Conservation oversight.
The Jackson County Board accepted the Zoning Committee’s recommendation and approved Petition #2025-40 (Benjamin McPherson) to rezone 20 acres in the Town of North Bend from A1 (Agriculture) to R6 (Residential-Rural Ag) for construction of a single-family home. The committee recommended approval with conditions that include no livestock until Land Conservation Department authorization, a manure-management plan, setbacks for livestock structures (100 feet from property lines; 300 feet from streams), and ongoing compliance with state and county environmental standards. Supervisor Sarah Peloquin moved acceptance; Supervisor Garth Rolbiecki seconded; voice vote 19 Aye.
The Land Conservation Department’s recommended conditions aim to prevent manure and soil runoff pollution and require documentation (manure management plan) and fencing/maintenance responsibility by the rezoned property owner. The resolution notes enforcement mechanisms including an order for livestock removal if conditions are not maintained.
