Snook Acres preliminary and final plats approved despite wetland frontage concerns
Summary
The board approved preliminary and final plats for Snook Acres near North Long Lake after staff and planning commission recommended approval; commissioners cautioned buyers about wet or swampy frontage on the lake lots.
Chris presented the preliminary plat for Snook Acres (parcels cited in Lake Edward Township) proposing three individual lots and one outlot for access to North Long Lake. He said the planning commission and board of adjustment held a public hearing on 04/17/2025 and made a unanimous recommendation to approve the plat.
Commissioner Franzen noted ditch/wetland issues and said the lake‑front lot has "really, really soft in the spring" conditions; Chris replied that county staff would treat the area as wetland with a 15‑foot setback and show building areas on the plat. The board approved the preliminary plat and later the final plat after staff confirmed requirements were satisfied and discussed shared driveway access via the outlot.
