Commission approves specific-use permit to allow separate electrical meter for secondary dwelling at 3210 Bluegrass Drive
Summary
The commission approved an SUP allowing a separate electrical meter for an existing secondary dwelling on a 15-acre agricultural lot; staff said the secondary unit exists and meets other ADU requirements, and the motion passed 5–0.
Staff summarized a request for a specific-use permit to allow a secondary dwelling unit at 3210 Bluegrass Drive to have a separate electrical meter. Staff said the secondary unit already exists on the 15-acre property, that the property follows a country future land-use module, and that the applicant meets other secondary-dwelling requirements; staff recommended approval. The presenter noted that adding a second meter would not automatically permit subdivision without replatting because agricultural zoning requires a 4-acre minimum lot size.
Resident and property owner Brent Massey described a multi-year permitting process, utility coordination and expenditures for water and electric work. "We've been trying to build this house, to take care of mother and grandfather... I started this process in 2021," Massey said, describing past easement work and utility hookups. Commissioner McDonald moved to approve the SUP, Commissioner Altman seconded, and the vote to approve passed 5–0.
