Committee forwards rezone asking to align residential parcel zoning while preserving existing gun shop business
Summary
A rezone request affecting 28.2 acres was forwarded to the county board; the portion containing an existing gun shop will remain business‑zoned, while rest of parcel will move from R‑1 to A‑3 to allow agricultural potential.
An Adams County committee voted to forward a rezone requested by Dennis Roberts that would change approximately 28.2 acres from R‑1 single‑family residential to A‑3 secondary agricultural while preserving the existing gun shop within the business zone.
Planning staff said the highway department had no objection and the town of Adams supported the proposal. Staff noted the area containing the gun shop (shown in the submission maps) will remain in business zoning so the existing commercial use may continue; the remaining acreage currently zoned R‑1 would be rezoned to allow agricultural uses.
No public comments were recorded at the meeting for this item. The committee approved forwarding the request to the county board for action on May 17 or May 20 (committee references both dates; county board materials will clarify the official date).
