Teton commissioners to postpone Shooting Star boundary adjustment over split-zoning

Teton County’s Board of County Commissioners is scheduled to postpone the Shooting Star/Teton Village boundary adjustment request (BDJ2026-0001) to a “date uncertain,” according to a postponement memo in the April 21 agenda packet.

Planning staff said that as they finalized the report, they flagged that the proposed replat would create two lots split between Rural-1 and Planned Resort (Teton Village Area II) zoning. Staff warned split-zoned lots can create ambiguity in how the Land Development Regulations and master plan are applied — including uses, density, setbacks and future permitting — and could complicate administration and enforcement or create legal risk. Staff said they would recommend denial if the application moved forward as submitted.

Staff said the applicant would need to pursue a zoning map amendment — and potentially a Teton Village Area II master plan amendment — before the project could return for a hearing, at which point the county would issue a new legal notice. (The underlying request is a boundary adjustment between the Shooting Star JH, LLC property and a New Moraine, LLC tract near N. Crystal Springs Road in Teton Village.)
