Board approves interim use permit allowing single accessory building on Nessel Township property
Summary
Chisago County approved an interim use permit allowing Bonnie Peach‑Jennings to construct a single accessory structure up to 2,400 sq ft on a 38.98± acre Agricultural parcel in Nessel Township, subject to conditions including annual certification and no sanitary facilities until a principal structure is built.
The Chisago County Board on June 17 approved Resolution No. 26/0617-2, granting an Interim Use Permit to property owner Bonnie Peach‑Jennings to allow one accessory structure up to 2,400 square feet on a 38.98± acre parcel in Nessel Township (PID 06.00072.00).
The Board’s findings reference Chisago County Zoning and the Comprehensive Plan, and the resolution includes conditions: the structure must conform in general with application materials; no sanitary facilities or overnight accommodations are permitted until a principal use structure (for example, a dwelling) is constructed; the permit requires annual certification and allows County inspections; and the permit expires once a principal structure is built. The Board voted unanimously to approve the interim permit.
Environmental Services Director Kurt Schneider presented the item and the Planning Commission had recommended approval with conditions following a public hearing on June 4. The resolution notes the Nessel Town Board recommended approval with no additional conditions.
The permit’s limits and annual certification provide the county a recurring compliance check; any significant deviations from the approved plan must return to the Planning Commission and Board for further review.
