Madison City zoning appeals board renews two conditional-use permits, sets conditions for two others
Summary
At its March 10 meeting the Madison City Board of Zoning Appeals approved renewals for two conditional-use permits, instructed legal or staff follow-up on two others and asked staff to investigate a previously flagged tattoo-parlor permit.
MADISON CITY — The Madison City Board of Zoning Appeals on March 10 approved renewals for two conditional-use permits, instructed staff and the city attorney to pursue follow-up for two additional renewals and asked staff to investigate an earlier conditional-use renewal tied to a tattoo parlor.
The board unanimously approved renewal of conditional-use permits for Steve Buchanan, 814 West Third Street, and Sedum Contracting, 20910 Wilson (vote 5-0). The board also found that the conditional-use permit for Corey Hankins and Anne Dickerson at 510 East Vaughn Drive has expired and directed the city attorney to send notice that the permit is expired; the board said the permit would be renewed if the owners pay the required fee by the next regular meeting. The board made a similar directive for a fourth renewal after staff reported the renewal letter had been returned as undeliverable: staff was asked to determine whether the property has been sold and, if it remains with the same owner, to inform them that payment before the next meeting will restore the permit.
The board additionally instructed staff to inquire into a conditional-use renewal previously discussed for a business at 408–418 Mulberry Street (a tattoo parlor). Staff said the property appears to be in the process of sale and may no longer be operating; the board directed staff to report back at the next meeting and said the permit will be renewed if the applicant pays the renewal fee before that meeting.
The board’s actions were procedural and focused on ensuring that required renewal fees and notice requirements have been met. Board members approved the items on voice votes with aye/no calls; five members were present for the meeting.
