Appeal of denial of Family Farm Divisions FFD 26-0016, 26-0017, 26-0018 for Legler Land Holdings
Appeal by Legler Land Holdings LLC (Jason Legler, principal) of the Department of Planning Services' rejection of three Family Farm Division applications as incomplete. Properties are three ~40-acre agricultural parcels near the intersection of CR 88 and CR 43 east of Pierce, proposing three new agricultural home site parcels at the corners of the pivot. Staff/Director David Eisenbrown denied the applications up front citing density and cumulative infrastructure impacts under section 24-710E. Board granted the appeal, allowing the applications to be filed and processed through the referral comment process. Commissioner Ross declined to make a motion and expressed frustration with FFD abuse.
