Court holds first reading on rezoning request for 7.05 acres at Chandler/Chapman Lane
Summary
Spencer County held a first reading on a request by the Betty Sue Mahaffey Estate to rezone 7.05 acres at 216 Chandler/Chapman Lane from agricultural to Ag2; staff said the change would conform with the comprehensive plan and commissioners set a second-reading date pending proper advertisement.
The Spencer County Fiscal Court conducted a first reading on a rezoning application from the Betty Sue Mahaffey Estate for 7.05 acres at 216 Chandler/Chapman Lane.
Julie presented the application and said the comprehensive plan identifies the parcel as suitable for medium-density residential use, and that the proposed change from agricultural to Ag2 would be consistent with the plan. Commissioner Mudd moved to recommend the rezoning and Commissioner Osborn seconded the motion.
One resident spoke, expressing concern that a subdivision might be proposed later; Julie and staff clarified the application was a zoning classification request, not a subdivision plan. Commissioners discussed advertisement timelines and agreed to check the newspaper deadline to ensure the second reading could be legally advertised and held at the next regular meeting.
Action: recommendation for rezoning was made at first reading; the second-reading date will be confirmed by staff and advertised per statutory notice requirements.
