Council sends Iverson site issues to Planning and Zoning amid concerns about unpermitted work

Council members discussed a proposed development by Kade Iverson that would join a residential and a commercial zone and questioned whether work had proceeded without proper Planning and Zoning approval. Paul Cox and other board members said inspections and a formal site plan are required before utility hookups are finalized or buried work is certified.

Board members noted Kade upgraded to a 2‑inch meter but that the town could not verify the number of sewer hookups. Officials also raised drainage and a private bridge’s compliance with code, and the presence of a former resident identified in the record as a sex offender — a matter the board said must be handled according to law and ordinance. The board agreed the project must go back to Planning and Zoning for review; staff were directed to verify permits, inspect installations and confirm utility counts before approving occupancy or connections.

No enforcement action or permit denial was made at the meeting; the town emphasized that proper permitting, inspections and sequencing must be followed for future work.
