Churchill County approves two parcel-map applications for Crest Place and Fernley Business Park

The Churchill County Board of Commissioners on Wednesday approved two land-use applications: a parcel map to split a 40.45-acre Crest Place property into two lots and a merger and resubdivision that will reshape parcels at Fernley Business Park.

Dean Patterson of Public Works and Planning told the board the Crest Place application (PC25-15) filed by Joe and Laurie Wurlinger would divide APN 006-351-11 to create a 9.11-acre lot for an existing residence; the Planning Commission recommended approval. "Both lots will continue to use the existing on-site wells, septic, and access onto Crest Place," Patterson said. The board moved, seconded and carried approval subject to the conditions listed in the staff report and accepted the easements identified on the map while rejecting offers to dedicate land and improvements.

Patterson also described a merger and resubdivision (PC25-17) from Fernley Business Park LLC that merges APNs 009-251-77 and 009-251-78 and redivides the property into four parcels. He said the application had been approved previously by the Planning Commission and county but lapsed because of signature delays; the applicant resolved the issues and resubmitted the same map. The staff report summarized resolved issues including road and utility abandonment and access corrections. The board approved the application subject to staff conditions, accepted the offered easements and declined offers to dedicate lands and improvements.

Both land-use items were presented as routine with Planning Commission recommendations; no public comment was heard on either application. The approvals are recorded in county files under the respective parcel-map applications.
