Board of Zoning Appeals Meeting 5-26-2026

The Johnson County Board of Zoning Appeals held a meeting on May 26, 2026, to consider zoning variance petitions. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of a use variance for a contractor shop and office at 5832 North 75 West Whitland, with conditions on signage size and landscaping to maintain the residential character of the area. The board approved the variance with a maximum wall sign size of 32 square feet and adherence to the submitted site plan and plan of operation. Another petition involved a request for a variance to allow a 1,360 square foot accessory dwelling on a former golf course property, exceeding the 1,000 square foot limit. The board approved this variance despite staff's recommendation against it, recognizing the unique circumstances of the property and the existing structure. No new capital projects or vendor contracts were discussed, and the meeting focused primarily on zoning and land use variances.
