LLC VARIANCE APPEAL

Mark and Shannon Nunlist, Judy Mark, and Rocky Point LLC (represented by Mark and Shannon Nunlist) are appealing conditions of a 2006 Lake County Board of Adjustment variance approval.

The approval was based on the Lake County Density Map and Regulations which have been repealed and are now advisory. If the appeal is approved, all density restrictions on tracts 1, 2 & 3 associated with the 2006 variance approval will be removed and allow the properties to be developed in compliance with density regulations and policies that are in place at the time of development. The subject properties are described as tracts 1, 2 & 3 of COS 6473, located within section 4, T23N, R20W.
