OLD BUSINESS

Proposed Zoning Map Amendment – Section 7.03 Replacement of Official Zoning Map

No response.

John Lowe closed the call to the public.

John Lowe asked the Planning Commission if they had any comments.

Debra Wiedman-Clawson has a list of corrections to be made to the map.

Some of the corrections cannot be made to the map until the properties are rezoned.  The rezoning process would take about six months and the township would like to adopt the map in a timely fashion.

The changes consist of:

1)      Parker High School designated as Public Land

2)      Marion Township Park #1 zoned as Public Land

3)      Marion Township cemeteries as Public Land

4)      Crystal Wood Site Condominium zoned as Suburban Residential

5)      Blossom Farms Cemetery zoned as Public Land (if not part of the Site Condominium)

6)      Mitch Harris Property east of Peavy Road zoning designation color needs to be corrected

7)      Existing Residential Subdivision District #1 & #2, change the color of one so it is easy to distinguish

The Planning Commission agreed to fix the mechanical issues now.
