Commission approves conditional use permit for shoreline excavation, stabilizing slope and boat access
Summary
The board approved a conditional use permit allowing excavation and grading of about 3,000 cubic yards within the Conservation District to stabilize an eroding slope, construct access features, and level a future home site; approval included three Planning Commission conditions and unanimous vote.
Traverse County commissioners approved a Conditional Use Permit to excavate, grade and fill roughly 3,000 cubic yards within a Conservation District and an adjacent steep slope to stabilize erosion, add two stairways, a boat access pathway and ramp, retaining walls and a water-oriented accessory structure. Zoning Administrator Ben Oleson presented the Planning Commission's recommendation for approval with three conditions; Commissioner Dwight Nelson moved to accept the recommendation and findings of fact, Commissioner Chad Metz seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.
The minutes note the excavated material will be used to level an area for a future home and accessory structures. The Planning Commission's recommended conditions and the findings of fact were adopted by the board, but the meeting minutes do not list the three conditions in full or include a project timeline.
