Lucas County panel approves Springfield Township zoning text amendment to allow temporary housing, remove upper-floor units
Summary
The Lucas County Planning Commission unanimously approved a text amendment to the Springfield Township zoning resolution to remove provisions allowing units above the ground floor and to add temporary housing provisions, following staff recommendation.
The Lucas County Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve a text amendment to the Springfield Township zoning resolution that replaces the section on units above the ground floor with provisions for temporary housing and makes related changes across several sections.
Commission staff introduced Case No. Z-19-C-9694 as a text amendment to Springfield Township's zoning resolution and said, "Staff recommends approval as shown in Exhibit A." The commission then moved and seconded approval and carried the motion by unanimous voice vote.
The amendment was described on the record as removing the existing Section 1920.2 (units above the ground floor) and replacing that provision with a new temporary housing standard, along with additional cleanup amendments in multiple sections of the zoning resolution. The record references Exhibit A for the specific language of the change; the text of Exhibit A was not read into the transcript at length.
No public comment or substantive questions for Springfield Township staff were recorded during the discussion. The transcript does not specify who moved or seconded the motion. The commission formalized the action by voice vote with all present members saying "aye."
The action will be reflected in the Springfield Township zoning resolution per the exhibit attached to the case file; the transcript does not specify an effective date or implementation schedule for the amendment.
