Timothy Short explosives storage appeal (APN 115-120-122)

Description

Tim Short appealed the planning director's ruling that storing explosives isn't allowed on his U-C-2 zoned parcel near Westwood. The board denied the appeal but told staff to draft a zoning amendment creating a use-permit process.

Impact summary

The Board of Supervisors denied it on Apr 28, 2026.

Short can't store explosives on the parcel yet, but a county use-permit path could open the door within months — with neighbor notification built in.
