Board approves temporary second dwelling for family supportive care with 90-day post-use requirements

Board of Commissioners, Douglas County, Minnesota · July 7, 2026

Summary

The board approved a conditional use to allow a temporary second dwelling for family supportive care on a property in Ida Township. Approval requires connection to central sewer and that, within 90 days after the dwelling's use for family supportive care ends, the structure be altered or the property subdivided to meet ordinance standards.

Douglas County approved a conditional use permit allowing a temporary second dwelling for family supportive care for property owners Jeffry and Tamara Meyer (parcel 240681-000) in Ida Township. The permit was approved with two conditions: the temporary dwelling must connect to the existing central sewer (ALASD), and within 90 days after use for family supportive care ceases the structure must be modified to remove dwelling components, the property subdivided to create a separate parcel, or otherwise made to conform to ordinance requirements.

Commissioners approved the permit by motion; the minutes do not record extended debate. The conditions establish a clear post-use compliance timeline and require sewer connection prior to operation.
