The Graham County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to set a public hearing at its next meeting on REZ943-25, a rezoning request from Bloomfield Companies for APN 102-43-034 at 1736 South Monteith Lane.
County staff introduced the request, saying the parcel is north of Highway 70 on the west side of Monteith Lane. Speaker 1 said the property "used to be Frito-Lay's operation center," and that it previously operated under a conditional use permit because its size did not meet manufacturing zoning requirements.
Speaker 1 explained the county is pursuing Commercial General (CG) zoning rather than a manufacturing designation because the site is "too small" for the manufacturing zone and the rezone would bring the property into compliance.
Speaker 4 moved to set REZ943-25 for a public hearing at the next meeting; Speaker 2 seconded the motion. The board voted "aye," and the motion carried.
The item will return to the board as a noticed public hearing where residents, staff and the applicant can comment before any final zoning decision.
