Nold and Lindahl’s shoreline variance remains postponed on Bayfield County BOA agenda

Case #26-01B, listed under Old Business on the Sept. 24, 2026, agenda, concerns applicants Stephen Nold and Susan Lindahl of Russell. The agenda describes their proposal to build a 1,906-square-foot residence, install a holding tank, and extend a driveway on a 0.87-acre lot with an existing garage and driveway. The applicants seek a reduced setback from a navigable intermittent stream of 35 feet rather than the 75 feet required by county ordinance.

The agenda explicitly notes this item was postponed from the July 30, 2026, meeting. The agenda does not state whether the Board intends to take the item up at the Sept. 24 meeting or whether a final decision will be made; no decision or vote tally is recorded in the circulated agenda. If the Board grants relief, the agenda reminds applicants that separate land-use permits from the Planning and Zoning Department are still required before construction may begin.
