Impact analysis
No direct county cost; the owner pays for construction and permitting.
The property owner, who gains space for a workshop, and arguably neighbors who see an aging shed removed.
No opponents spoke, though staff noted added impervious surface could slightly increase runoff toward adjacent parcels.
