Board approves rezoning of ~62 acres to rural residential for family homestead
Summary
The county approved a zoning map amendment converting about 61.98 acres from single‑family residential (R2SF) to rural residential to allow a home with outbuildings for FFA and 4‑H activities; an adjacent owner raised a drainage ditch concern the board noted will need private resolution.
Commissioners approved Resolution 25-08-ZO-03 to rezone roughly 61.98 acres from single-family residential (R2SF) to rural residential (RR) to better meet the applicant family's needs for a home and agricultural outbuildings.
County planner Cassidy Brown described the site’s infrastructure and said multiple parcels in the vicinity are already zoned rural residential. Brown noted one adjacent owner, Charlotte Prudenz Ross, called to express concern that an unrecorded drainage ditch along the south property line not be removed; Brown said she found no recorded easement and indicated that resolution of the drainage issue would be a matter for the property owner and adjacent landowners. With a 4–0 Planning & Zoning recommendation, the commissioners approved the amendment unanimously.
The change moves the parcel into a zoning category that better supports agricultural uses and accessory structures; Brown said detailed utilities and access requirements will be examined when the owner applies for permits to build.
