Continued Discussion of Revisions to Land Division Ordinance

Storm makes a motion to send the below recommendation to the board. Seconded by Paust. All in favor. Motion passes

We recommend raising the minimum acreage needed for a split to 35 acres while retaining a minimum lot size of 1.5 acres. All existing land division transfers would be honored as recorded. There may be incentives to allow more splits if certain conditions are met to preserve productive farmland, based on assessed land types for acreages over 35. We recommend that parcels of 35 acres or less with an existing dwelling are not eligible to be split.

Adjournment

Storm made a motion to adjourn. Truttmann seconded. Meeting adjourned at 9:00pm.
