Rice County Planning Commission Official Proceedings

The Planning Commission reviewed several conditional use permit requests and a waiver of plat application. Key discussions included a denied conditional use permit for a sand and gravel mining operation due to concerns over infrastructure, traffic impact, and potential effects on local waterways, despite arguments regarding the benefits of local aggregate sources. The commission also reviewed and recommended approval for a contractor's office and yard, as well as an amendment to an existing conditional use permit for a supervised residential program facility, which includes adding a residential building. A waiver of plat application to create a new building parcel via transfer of development rights was also recommended for approval.
