MINOT — Voters Tuesday decided to reduce the minimum lot size in rural zone districts from 5 acres to 2.5 acres.

Two questions were needed to make the change: one amended Section 1 of the town’s comprehensive plan, while the other amended the minimum lot size for the Rural I district in the town’s land use code.

Residents voted 196 to 102 for the first question and 191 to 106 for the second question.

Residents also approved the state infrastructure bond question 161 to 84, and approved the state alternative signature referendum 165 to 81.
