Council to set hearing for former FOP property on Johnson Road; BZA inactivity noted
Summary
Council members discussed a petition for variances at the former FOP property on Johnson Road and agreed staff should set a BZA hearing; staff and council noted the BZA has not been meeting regularly and a hearing will require coordination and published notice.
Council and staff discussed a petition filed for the former FOP property on Johnson Road that seeks variances rather than rezoning. Chris explained the petition is seeking forgiveness for existing conditions and that the BZA must be scheduled to consider variances.
"They're asking for variances to allow what they're asking for forgiveness versus permission," Chris said, adding that the BZA must be convened because it has not met regularly. The council agreed staff should coordinate with Pete to set the hearing and publish the required notice.
The meeting included logistical questions about scheduling and notice requirements; council members stressed the need to get the petition set for a hearing so the variance process can proceed.
