During Staff review <br />of the site in question, an error was discovered on <br />the Zoning Atlas with regard to the location of the <br />Existing Commercial -5 zoning lot and the actual <br />location of the cabinet shop. Mr. Lawton has requested <br />that the error be corrected. <br />Zoning was originally applied in Bingham Township <br />on September 2, 1981. At that time, an Existing <br />Commercial (EC -5) designation was approved for an <br />existing cabinet shop on the south side of Old <br />Greensboro Road (SR 1005) between Ferguson Road (SR <br />1948) and Ivey Road (SR 1947). The EC -5 lot is part of <br />lot 23 on tax map 37 of Bingham Township which is <br />currently zone Rural Buffer, PWII, and ULW. <br />Surrounding land uses are agricultural and <br />residential. Adjacent zoning is Rural Buffer, PWII, <br />and University Lake Watershed. <br />In 1981 the EC -5 lot was drawn incorrectly on the <br />Zoning Atlas. The cabinet shop is located on the <br />central and eastern portions of a 4 -acre tract. The <br />zoning lot was shown adjacent to the western boundary <br />on an undeveloped portion of the tract. The EC -5 <br />zoning lot approved in 1981 was 66,000 square feet <br />
