Planning staff moves rezoning of 30 acres in Foxlin Hall to public hearing; community meeting set
Summary
Staff described Ordinance 202505, a rezoning of roughly 30 acres off Hunters Lane from R‑2 to OSRD to correct a mapping error; a community meeting was scheduled for this evening and the public hearing is set for April 14 with second reading April 28.
Planning staff introduced Ordinance 202505, a proposed rezoning of about 30 acres off Hunters Lane in the Foxlin Hall subdivision from R‑2 to OSRD. Staff said the rezoning is intended as a map correction to align the zoning with the original subdivision’s OSRD designation.
Staff described the parcel as a narrow 50‑foot strip of open space that is part of Foxlin Hall and said there are no current plans to develop the area. Because it is a zoning ordinance, staff noted it must follow the normal public‑notice and adoption process: a community meeting was scheduled for the same evening at 6 p.m. in the commission chambers, the public hearing before the board of commissioners is scheduled for April 14, and second reading is scheduled for April 28.
Commissioners discussed whether the item could be moved to consent if it were only a cleanup; staff said that because it is a zoning ordinance it needs to go back to the board and follow the statutory process. Staff also told commissioners that even with the OSRD zoning the development does not have excess open space that would allow creation of additional lots under OSRD standards.
The transcript excerpt does not record a final vote on the ordinance; staff presented the schedule for public engagement and subsequent board consideration.
