Ordinance Amending Zoning Atlas <br /> PURPOSE: To hold a public hearing and consider action on a property owner initiated <br /> amendment to the Zoning Atlas for a parcel of property within the Cheeks Township. Specifically, <br /> the applicant is requesting to rezone a 16.45 acre, split zoned, parcel of property: <br /> From: Rural Residential (R-1) (14.57 acres); and Neighborhood Commercial (NC-2) <br /> (1.88 acres) <br /> To: General Commercial (GC-4) (16.45 acres) <br /> BACKGROUND: This 16.45 acre parcel was originally "split-zoned" Neighborhood Commercial <br /> (NC-2) and Rural Residential (R-1) when zoning for Cheeks Township was established in 1984. <br /> The property has had a Commercial-Industrial Transition Activity Node (CITAN) land use <br /> designation since 1984 as well.

The NC-2 zoned <br /> portion of property contains a pole barn and a non-residential structure. Both of these structures <br /> are utilized to support contracting, storage, landscaping, and agricultural uses. The R-1 zoned <br />
