Portions of the operation, <br /> permitted under an existing Special Use Permit issued on March 10, 1986, are within <br /> the required 150 foot setback. <br /> The proposed amendment would reduce the required setbacks for Class II Kennels, <br /> developed within the EDE-2 zoning district, to 25 feet which is the typical setback <br /> required for structures developed within the district. <br /> Purpose: To review the item and receive public comment on the application. <br /> 4. 2030 Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Text <br /> Amendments and Zoning Atlas Amendments: In accordance with the provisions <br /> of Section 2.3 Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Section 2.8 Zoning Atlas and <br /> Unified Development Ordinance Amendments of the Unified Development <br /> Ordinance, the Planning Director has initiated an amendment to the text of the 2030 <br /> Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Ordinance and to the Zoning <br /> Atlas. <br /> The purpose of these amendments is to establish two new zoning overlay <br /> districts in the Efland area in Cheeks Township.
