Summary

After a Planning Board 5-1 recommendation and no public opposition at the hearing, the council approved the Statement of Consistency for rezoning Parcel IDs #130320, #219066, #130314 and #130318 (about 1444 W. Academy St.).

The Cherryville City Council on May 10 considered a rezoning application for four parcels at or near 1444 W. Academy Street and approved the required Statement of Consistency following a public hearing.

Planning & Zoning Director Derrick Mackey told the council the Planning Board reviewed the proposal at its April 19 meeting and voted five-to-one to recommend approval. Mackey said Mr. Denis Blackburne, Senior Vice President of Woda Companies, was present and available for questions; Mackey also reported he had received no comments from abutting property owners and no citizens spoke during the council's public hearing.

Councilmember Gary Freeman moved to approve the Statement of Consistency required by Section 19.1.10 of the City of Cherryville Zoning Ordinance. Councilmember Jill Puett seconded the motion and the council voted unanimously to approve the statement as written.

The transcripted Statement of Consistency document contained check-box language with the phrases "ARE / ARE NOT" left in place; the council voted to approve the Statement "as written." The council record does not include additional findings in the meeting minutes beyond the vote to adopt the statement; the Planning Board record and the zoning map were noted as part of the public hearing file.
