Board OKs mobile home placement

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.
