The Morgan Township Board of Trustees voted to adopt text amendments to the township zoning regulations that add new definitions and include new limits and procedures for shared driveways. Zoning staff said the additions were proposed by the Morgan Township Zoning Commission and forwarded to the Butler County Planning Commission, which approved the changes in BCPC resolution number 25.32. The zoning commission also conducted public hearings and recommended the changes to trustees.

Trustees discussed that any shared-driveway request would go to the township Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA), which must find hardship and may not permit more than two parcels to share a driveway under the new language. Trustees read the resolution into the record and approved it by voice vote. Staff noted the regulation becomes effective 30 days after passage (Dec. 10). No separate fees or bond requirements were adopted at this meeting.

The changes were described in meeting materials as amendments to the Morgan Township zoning regulations (version 2024) and referenced case numbers (MTZ2025-01 and MTZ2025-05/06 as presented to the trustees).
