Summary

Todd County approved a conditional-use permit for Wardell to provide temporary family housing on Parcel 150012301 in Leslie Township, subject to compliance with section 9.17 of the county planning ordinance; commissioners discussed the potential value of interim-use permits to set clearer end dates.

The Todd County Board approved a conditional-use permit (CUP) for Wardell to allow temporary family housing on a parcel in Leslie Township, adopting the planning commission's findings and requiring compliance with section 9.17 of the county's planning and zoning ordinance.

Planning staff said the CUP is designed for truly temporary housing situations (for example, a second dwelling used to house a relative for a defined period). Commissioners asked how the county defines temporary, and planning staff and commissioners discussed the possibility of using interim-use permits in the future to set explicit end dates for temporary uses.

"It's truly temporary...when the house stops being used for that particular purpose, there's, like, 60 days or something that you have to remove it from the property," planning staff explained during the discussion. The board moved and approved the CUP by voice vote.
