Commission approves limits-of-disturbance change for Maple Ridge Ranch Lot 21 to allow future guest house

Oakley Planning Commission · September 2, 2026

Summary

Oakley's planning commission approved a limits-of-disturbance reconfiguration for Maple Ridge Ranch Lot 21 that staff said preserves total disturbance area while shifting the envelope away from the roadside to accommodate a future guest house; owner Jack McElegant spoke in support.

The Oakley Planning Commission voted to approve a limits-of-disturbance amendment for Maple Ridge Ranch Lot 21 that moves the disturbed area away from the roadway and toward the rear of the roughly 25-acre lot, staff said.

"It's about 0.104 acres just moving," staff (Stephanie) said while describing the reconfiguration and noted the HOA approved the change on July 2. Applicant Jack McElegant told the commission he and his brother own the property and "intend on building a guest house," and he confirmed the HOA and architect previously reviewed the plan.

Commissioners and staff said the change should not affect nearby waterway setbacks and that the building envelope shift would not increase total disturbance. No public opposition appeared at the hearing. A motion to approve the lot amendment as written passed by roll call.

Next steps: the approval allows future permitting for the guest house subject to building permits and HOA requirements.
