Board postpones KC Investments land-use permit pending inspector review
Summary
Trustees postponed action on an expired land-use permit for KC Investments at 109 State Hwy 35 after concerns the proposed bathroom work might indicate a conversion to residential use and questions about a camper connected to utilities; the board asked for written plans and said no work may proceed until approval.
The board reviewed a Land Use Permit application for KC Investments Property at 109 State Hwy 35 that had expired after one year. Clerk Atterbury explained the permit covers adding a full bathroom upstairs, finishing a roughed-in bath and adding a half bath. Trustees expressed concern the owner might be converting the feed mill to residential use and that improper items flushed into the sewer could stress the village system. They also noted a camper on the property that appears connected to water and electricity.
President McLimans proposed postponing a decision and consulting building inspector Josh Copsey to determine whether the owner's planned work is legally permissible; trustees asked for written plans and agreed no work should proceed until the permit is approved at a future meeting. The decision was postponed until the November meeting for further review.
Why it matters: the scope of interior work could change the property's use and have implications for utility load and code compliance; trustees sought clarifying plans and inspector input before any permit reissuance.
Next step: McLimans to consult with building inspector Josh Copsey and the board to revisit the permit at the Nov. 3 meeting.
