There was no public comment regarding this issue. Commissioner Kirby stated that water is available, there is no potential for further development, two attractive sites are well established, the property has not been used agriculturally since the first split, and it does not evade the subdivision regulations.

He stated the property was in full compliance in 1988 when Minor Subdivision S-291 was granted. However, the Brazeltons no longer wish to develop the property into six lots, but want to divide the property into two proposed lots. Commissioner Lacy stated the two lots would be more compatible to the area than the six lots originally approved, and moved to vacate Subdivision S-291. Seconded by Commissioner Harbert, the motion carried unanimously. Commissioner Harbert then moved to approve Recorded Exemption #1421. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Webster. Commissioner Lacy asked whether there were any conditions of approval to be included, and if this would create a second access.
