DANVILLE — Temporary placement of a mobile home north of the city received initial approval Thursday night.
The Danville Area Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approving Herbert (Pete) M. and Beth A. Lappin’s request for a special-use permit to temporarily place a mobile home at 17147 Stable Lane in the A-2 development reserve zoning district.
The recommendation stipulates that a house must be built on the site within four years.
The commission listened to objections from about a dozen residents.
The city council will act on the permit on July 15.
The location is outside city limits, but within the mile and a half zoning jurisdiction of the city. It’s about a mile north of West Newell Road just off Shake Rag Road.
The area has a mixture of new and older houses, including manufactured/mobile homes.
The Lappins live in Bismarck and plan to move their mobile home to this site that previously had a manufactured home on it, he said.
In other business, the commission continued discussing zoning ordinance revisions.
