all persons desiring to speak in regards to the LeaWay Company case to proceed to the

Expansion of a Non -Conforming Use for a Rendering Facility: Owners
Arthur and Deloris Lea, Along with the LeaWay Company (Steve Lea) as
Applicant: Planner Richard McHargue said a nonconforming request followed a
somewhat different process from a rezoning case. He said a property owner was
afforded a right under the county's ordinance to expand a use that was nonconforming or
out of compliance with the zoning ordinance. He said the current zoning was established
in 1990 when countywide zoning was adopted. Mr. McHargue then summarized the
staff report which is as follows:
