Commission approves small parcel zoning change so Egbert family can build residence
Summary
The commission approved a change from open‑space to agricultural‑residential for a 3.139‑acre parcel so the Egbert Family Trust can create a parcel suitable for a single‑family home for a family member; approval carries standard development and deed‑restriction conditions.
The Elko County Planning Commission approved COZ26‑001, a change of zoning requested by the Egbert Family Trust to create a 3.139‑acre parcel from a larger ranch for construction of a single‑family residence for a family member. Staff noted the rationale: lenders and mortgage conditions often require a parcel of buildable size rather than encumbering very large ranch tracts.
Staff recommended approval with standard conditions (compliance with Nevada Revised Statutes and Elko County development criteria; deed conveyance language tying subsequent owners to findings and conditions). Commissioner Scott moved to approve the rezoning with staff recommendations; the motion was seconded and carried.
