Commissioners approve variance to allow second principal use on under‑two‑acre lot
Summary
The board approved a variance requested by Karen Holcomb to permit a second principal use on a property slightly under two acres after a neighbor testified in support and the Planning Commission recommended approval.
Stephens County commissioners approved a variance to allow a second principal use on a property under two acres for applicant Karen Holcomb (parcel 054A070). Planning staff said the property narrowly fell short of the two‑acre threshold and the Planning Commission recommended approval.
Arlen Holton spoke in support on behalf of the applicant, noting neighbors had no objections and that the rear of the parcel borders pastureland. Commissioners moved to approve the variance during the regular session and the motion carried.
No conditions or opposition were recorded in the hearing transcript; staff will record the variance with county land‑use records.
