Excerpt of Approved November 21, 2016 <br /> Quarterly Public Hearing Minutes <br /> 5. Statement of Consistency <br /> 6. Ordinance Amending Zoning Atlas <br /> PURPOSE: To continue a review of, and take action on, Planning Director initiated <br /> amendments to the Zoning Atlas for four parcels owned by Efland Real Property LLC within the <br /> Cheeks Township. <br /> Based on concerns expressed at the November 21, 2016 Quarterly Public Hearing, action was <br /> deferred on these parcels. Consistent with direction from the BOCC, staff met with residents of <br /> the Ashwick subdivision to discuss the rezoning of the four parcels in greater detail including <br /> staff's basis for recommending the properties be rezoned General Commercial (GC-4). <br /> BACKGROUND: As the Board may recall from the November 21, 2016 Quarterly Public <br /> Hearing, staff presented an item seeking to modify/alter the zoning of 15 properties within the <br /> Bingham, Cheeks, and Cedar Grove Townships. The item was in response to a BOCC petition <br /> asking staff to review the zoning of several non-residentially zoned properties and identify <br /> constraints, associated with existing general use zoning boundaries, potentially limiting <br /> development opportunities. <br /> For more background information please refer to Attachment 1. A map denoting the specific <br /> properties reviewed in the Cheeks Township at the public hearing is contained within <br /> Attachment 2. Excerpts of the approved minutes from the November 21, 2016 Quarterly Public <br /> Hearing are contained within Attachment 4. <br />
