County Commission upheld planning decisions on Harmons parcel and Modern Lands with minor condition changes
Summary
Staff told the Planning Commission that the County Commission heard appeals on a Harmons conditional-use permit and a Modern Lands private ski-resort matter, upheld the Planning Commission's decisions at a May 11 special meeting and modified a few conditions (lighting and limited decibel exceptions for lift equipment).
Corey reported that the Board of County Commissioners held a special meeting on May 11 to hear appeals of planning decisions, including a conditional-use permit in Ruby Valley for the Harmons parcel and an appeal concerning a Modern Lands private ski-resort project. The County Commission upheld the Planning Commission’s decisions but made limited modifications to conditions.
Corey said one modification allowed limited lighting for maintenance around the lodge provided lights are turned off when not in use, and the County Commission narrowed a sound restriction modification to permit chairlifts and supporting equipment during construction and operation, rather than a broader exemption. Corey characterized the changes as not substantially different from this board’s decisions and relayed praise the County Commission offered the Planning Commission for its prior work on the items.
The report was informational; the Planning Commission had no further actions on these appeals at this meeting.
