Summary

A request to rezone a 10‑acre parcel from MU‑160 to RR‑10 was denied after staff said the request failed the county's approval standards; the planning commission had recommended denial.

The commission voted to deny a rezone petition by Mr. Boucher seeking to change the zoning of a 10-acre parcel from MU‑160 (160‑acre minimum) to RR‑10. Community development staff explained the parcel was created by deed in 2003 and did not go through the subdivision process, producing a locally substandard lot. The planning commission reviewed the approval standards (consistency with the general plan, compatibility with adjacent development, effects on adjacent property, and adequacy of services) and recommended denial.

Commissioner Bingham moved to follow the planning commission's recommendation to deny the rezone; the motion carried unanimously. Staff located the parcel just south of Lucin and noted access and service adequacy among the concerns that led to refusal to change the zone.
