Bloomington BZA continues several zoning petitions to Feb. 26, citing notice and historic-review requirements
Summary
At its Jan. 22 meeting the Bloomington Board of Zoning Appeals continued multiple petitions to the Feb. 26 meeting after staff said required public‑notice mailings were incomplete and one case must first go to the Historic Preservation Commission.
The Bloomington Board of Zoning Appeals on Jan. 22 continued multiple zoning petitions to its next meeting on Feb. 26, the board’s chair announced, after staff said petitioners had not completed required steps for public notice and one case requires Historic Preservation Commission review.
Staff identified four zoning files that have been continued: ZR2025-12-0114 (Paul Pruitt and Keith Klein, 2511 North Dunn Street), ZR2025-12-0116 (H and E Rentals LLC, 1004 South Anderson Street) and ZR2025-12-0117 (Rusty Wampler, 105 East Strickland Drive). Staff also said ZR2025-12-0119 for the Monroe County School Corporation (3901 North Kinzer Pike) was continued because the petitioner “did not get their public notice letters out,” a staff member stated during the meeting.
One case that had been recommended by a hearing officer to be forwarded to the board — DR2025-12-0115 for Value Built Inc., 614 North Grand Street — must first be reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission, staff said. “It has to go to the Historic Preservation Commission, before it can be heard by the Board of Zoning Appeals,” the staff member said, and therefore the staff recommended continuing the case to Feb. 26.
The board voted on a motion to move DR2025-12-0115 to the Feb. 26 meeting; roll-call responses recorded on the transcript were recorded as yes from the members who answered, carrying the motion. Because the cases were legally on the published agenda for Jan. 22, the board’s vote was required to change the hearing dates.
Staff told the board that if a petitioner refiles with complete notice materials it will be placed on the board’s regular cycle. The board’s next scheduled Board of Zoning Appeals meeting was confirmed as Feb. 26.
The meeting record did not include additional details about the substance of the petitions, and staff said one petition lacked a complete application for public-notification letters; those petitioners will need to cure the deficiency before being heard.
