Brimfield trustees review proposed edits to zoning Schedule of Uses; take no action
Summary
At a Sept. 3 public hearing, the Brimfield Township Board of Trustees reviewed proposed edits to Chapter 3 of the Zoning Resolution and Appendix E (Schedule of Uses) intended to clarify how Appendix E relates to Chapter 3. The board discussed existing and proposed language but did not vote on the change.
The Brimfield Township Board of Trustees met in a public hearing Sept. 3 at the Brimfield Townhall to consider proposed amendments to Chapter 3 of the township Zoning Resolution and to Appendix E, the Schedule of Uses. Trustee Nicholas Coia called the meeting to order at 7:45 AM; trustees present were Coia, Mike Kostensky and Sue Fields, and Fiscal Officer Jasmine Golden.
The record shows the board reviewed the existing and proposed wording for Appendix E. The existing text stated that "The Schedule of Uses is not a comprehensive list of every use permitted or conditionally permitted by the Brimfield Township Zoning Resolution," directing readers to Chapter 3 for exact information. The proposed replacement would state that Appendix E "is intended to supplement the Zoning Resolution, including Chapter 3, by identifying uses, including additional uses, that are permitted or conditionally permitted in a given zoning district," and that "Chapter 3 of the Zoning Resolution sets forth specific regulations for permitted or conditionally permitted uses in a given zoning district." The hearing record lists both the existing and proposed language for comparison.
No motion or formal vote on the amendment was recorded; the minutes state, "No Action was taken." The board then moved to adjourn. Trustee Mike Kostensky moved to adjourn at 7:47 AM; Trustee Sue Fields seconded. "Upon a roll call the vote passed unanimously," and the meeting was adjourned.
The proposed change, as presented in the record, would clarify that Appendix E supplements — rather than attempts to list exhaustively — the uses governed by Chapter 3. The minutes do not record further discussion, public comment, or a schedule for reconsideration. The minutes include a certification line signed by the chairman and fiscal officer approving the minutes as a true and accurate record.
