Commercial Review<br />
The development of new commercial zones shall also be reviewed on a case by case basis by the Planning<br />
Commission. As development of these areas takes place, the commercial standards included in the <strong>Elko</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong> Codes shall be adhered to with each development.<br />
These uses should be well defined as per <strong>Elko</strong> <strong>County</strong> Code and possibly the adoption of an additional<br />
Zoning Designation. These uses should also be required to conform to U.B.C. standards for commercial<br />
buildings as well as <strong>Elko</strong> <strong>County</strong> Commercial development criteria.<br />
The Commercial (restricted use) area shown as the frontage of Valley Vista Acres Subdivision, is<br />
restricted to allow for the use of service oriented businesses that create low vehicular and pedestrian traffic<br />
flow such as Office Space for: Income Tax Preparation, Real Estate Office, Business Office for<br />
Construction Companies, Accountants, Travel Agency, Civil Engineering / Surveying Company, Architects,<br />
etc.<br />
Currently a small one lot area at the intersection of <strong>Lamoille</strong> Highway and <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> Parkway is zoned<br />
Commercial - 1, restricted to the use of an existing Real-Estate Office. The 2005 <strong>Elko</strong> <strong>County</strong> Planning<br />
Commission review of the <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> area designated the intersection of the <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> Parkway, Light<br />
Parkway as Commercial. The intersection of <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> Parkway, Palace Parkway and <strong>Lamoille</strong><br />
Highway were also designated as Commercial. However the Plan as adopted in 2005 by the <strong>Elko</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
Commission without the Commercial designations on these <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> properties due to overwhelming<br />
protest by <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> property owners.<br />
There are currently two Commercial designated areas located on SR 228 within Sections 8 & 17 of T. 33N.,<br />
R.56 E. of the Old LDS Ranch which are undeveloped.<br />
Within the proposed Redstone Ranch Development there are three Commercially designated areas located<br />
within Sec. 3 of T. 33N., R.56 E.<br />
Industrial District Designations<br />
The Industrial Zones shown in the <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> / <strong>Lamoille</strong> Master Plan are primarily existing zoning.<br />
15.7 acres have been zoned Light Industrial within Redstone Development. Additionally, approximately<br />
250 acres has been designated for new Industrial Zoning primarily for the development of Gravel mining.<br />
Approximately 20 acres of the industrial designation is for the use of M-1 type business with a dual zoning<br />
of Agricultural-Residential on the same Parcel. The existing zoning includes an Industrial Subdivision,<br />
Ruby Mountain Industrial Subdivision. The uses of the subdivision fall into the M-1 General Industrial<br />
uses. A large portion of the existing Industrial uses are for the mining of gravel.<br />
The other uses for the Industrial Zones are for the location of Construction Companies including storage of<br />
equipment and building materials, Propane Gas storage and distribution, Recycling facility, Storage for<br />
various types of equipment including automobiles and Freeport Storage Building.<br />
The development of the Industrial areas is becoming imperative to the continued development of Residential<br />
areas. The development of theses industrial zones are not always popular in the public view. Due to the<br />
location of many of the zones adjacent to existing Residential areas, the use of the zones can be controlled if<br />
reviewed by the Planning Commission during the Re-Zone or Conditional Use application process.<br />
