Planning Commission backs 9-acre farmstead split for Wieczorek and Patrick
Summary
The Davison County Planning Commission unanimously recommended a variance to allow Brian Wieczorek and Stacey Patrick to create a roughly 9-acre lot containing an old farmstead in Section 23, where the Agricultural District minimum is 25 acres. The recommendation goes to the Board of Adjustment.
The Davison County Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of a variance allowing applicants Brian Wieczorek and Stacey Patrick to split approximately 9 acres containing a former farmstead from agricultural land in the W1/2 of the NE1/4 of Section 23 (T104N, R62).
Deputy Director of Planning & Zoning Karen Wegleitner explained the variance application to the commission. The applicants told the board they no longer reside on the property and want to transfer the old farmstead to a new owner while retaining the surrounding agricultural acreage. The Agricultural District requires a minimum lot size of 25 acres; the applicants seek an exemption to create an approximately 9-acre residential lot.
"The applicant was present to answer questions," the minutes record. On a motion by Ray Gosmire and seconded by Dave Anderson, the commission voted to recommend the variance to the Board of Adjustment; the roll call vote recorded Haines, Thiesse, Gosmire, Nebelsick and Anderson as voting aye (Bainbridge and Blaalid were absent). The recommendation does not itself change zoning; it forwards the request for Board of Adjustment action.
