Summary
CL3 Properties LLC requested rezoning of a 32‑acre parcel from A1 (ag preservation) to A2 to permit a single‑family home in the future. County staff recommended approval, citing the county comprehensive plan designation and surrounding A2 parcels; the health department noted septic considerations; no final vote was recorded.
CL3 Properties LLC (case 2539Z) asked the Tazewell County Zoning Board of Appeals to rezone a roughly 32‑acre parcel from A1 (ag preservation) to A2 to allow a future single‑family dwelling. The petitioner and an agent described the parcel as partly tillable farmland with a pond and cabin; the future dwelling location would be north of the pond, away from tillable fields.
County planning staff recommended approval, noting the county comprehensive plan lists the property with a future land‑use designation of A2 and several surrounding parcels already have A2 classifications. The staff report said the A2 district allows limited single‑family residential development while remaining compatible with surrounding agricultural uses. The Tazewell County Health Department indicated the property currently has septic and must be notified before future construction; other county departments and the Farm Bureau raised no objections.
Petitioner representative Jeff (on behalf of CL3 Properties) described planned access and said no immediate construction was scheduled; the rezoning was intended to permit a house in the future rather than to begin building immediately. Community development staff explained next steps: the zoning board’s recommendation will go to the land use committee and then to the county board, which makes final decisions on Class A rezoning cases.
No board vote was recorded at the hearing; staff recommended approval and the case will proceed through the county’s land‑use review process.
