Madison County approves rezoning to allow Madison Wood Preservers expansion
Summary
The Madison County Board of Supervisors approved rezoning of two Oak Park Road parcels from R-2 residential to M-2 industrial to allow expansion of Madison Wood Preservers; planning staff reported no objections and a neighbor letter of support was in the record.
MADISON COUNTY — The Madison County Board of Supervisors approved a rezoning request to allow Madison Wood Preservers to expand operations on two adjacent Oak Park Road parcels.
The board voted to rezone 98 Oak Park Road (Madison County tax map 39-96, 0.936 acres) and 206 Oak Park Road (tax map 39-98, 0.701 acres) from R-2 residential general to M-2 industrial general at its joint meeting with the Planning Commission on June 4, 2025. The application, listed as case RZ-04-25-01, was filed on behalf of Madison Wood Preservers by Carrie Gaviria.
Staff summary and public feedback
Planning staff reported that a letter included in the meeting packet came from a nearby neighbor who said they did not object to the rezoning and described Madison Wood Preservers as “a generally good neighbor.” No public commenters spoke at either the Planning Commission hearing or the Board meeting.
The Planning Commission recommended the rezoning to the Board of Supervisors; the board then voted to approve the request. No roll-call tally was recorded in the public transcript; the chair called for aye/oppose and the motion carried.
What the rezoning does and next steps
The rezoning changes the official zoning designation from residential to industrial for the two parcels to facilitate an expansion of Madison Wood Preservers. The application materials in the record identify the two tax parcels and their acreage; no specific site plan, building permit, or schedule for construction was recorded in the hearing minutes. Any additional permits or approvals required under county regulations or state review processes were not detailed in the hearing record.
Evidence and record
The Planning Commission introduced the case, staff noted the neighbor letter, and no public comment was offered; the Planning Commission recommended approval and the Board approved the rezoning at the same meeting.
