Public Hearings <br />a. Zoning Atlas Amendment — Easterlin Rezoning of 5908 US 70 East in Eno <br />Township — Public Hearing Closure and Action (No Additional Comments <br />Accepted) <br />The Board received the Planning Board recommendation, closed the public hearing, and <br />considered a decision on an owner - initiated general rezoning petition in accordance with the <br />provisions of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). <br />Michael Harvey said this is regarding the rezoning of property, owned by the Easterlin <br />family, from its current designation of Eno Economic Development Low Intensity (EDD1) to Eno <br />Economic Development Higher Intensity (EDD2). He said this property is split zoned, and the <br />Easterlins would like for this property to all be zoned EDD2. <br />Michael Harvey reminded the Board that the Easterlins currently have a kennel on the <br />property, as well as a telecommunications facility operating under an existing class B special <br />use permit. He said kennels are not a permitted land use within the EDD1 category, but a <br />kennel is allowed in the EDD2 category. He said this will allow the owners to keep their <br />business going. He said the planning board has voted unanimously to recommend approval. <br />A motion was made by Commissioner Rich, seconded by Commissioner Pelissier to <br />close the public hearing. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />A motion was made Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Price to <br />approve: <br />a.
