Board adopts zone change for homestead survey on Elden and Leavon Dome property

The Cerro Gordo County Board of Supervisors on June 15 adopted Resolution 2026-43 approving a change of zone for a homestead on the Elden and Leavon Dome farm.

The chair opened a public hearing on the request, explaining the property is currently zoned A1 within the farmland zone and that the parcel, when surveyed out, is less than the acreage required for an A2 district. The county planning and zoning commission had unanimously recommended approval. No members of the public spoke for or against the change; the board closed the hearing and voted to adopt the resolution.

The resolution action permits the surveyed homestead to be rezoned at the request made by the property owners; the board made the decision after the planning commission’s recommendation and no formal objections were recorded during the hearing. The board’s vote was taken by voice and recorded as 'I' for those in favor.
