VUBLIC REARING
Chairman Haire adjourned the meeting to public hearing.
PROPOSED ANENDEBNT TO TEE ZONING ORDINANCE-(CEDRCRES IN R-20
DISTRICT): Mr. Lundy advised that sometime ago an amendment had
been proposed to the planning board concerning the construction
or expansion of churches in R-20 districts of the zoning
ordinance. The planning board, after a couple of meetings, had
recommended that the process of approval in a R-20 be shortened
by amending Section 82.2 to only require that petitioners go to
the Board of Adjustment rather than both the Planning Board and
Board of Adjustment. The time involved will be cut in half. The
second proposal that was submitted would have exempted churches
that existed as of the date of adoption of this amendment. The
Planning Board had not recommended to the commissioners that the
second proposal be included in the ordinance. At the last
commissioners' meeting, the county attorney and the planning
staff were charged with trying to define customary related uses.
A proposed sentence reading: Customary related uses for purposes
of this section includes religious schools, daycare for youth and
elderly, cemeteries, traditional playgrounds, and structures used
for the storage of church property would be the new amendment;
plus a revision to the first paragraph in Section 82.2.
Chairman Haire adjourned the public hearing.
MOTION by Commissioner Madison to approve the amendments to
Section 82.2 as presented by the planning staff.
