Crooks approves zoning amendment shifting notice duties to applicants, requiring 7-day signage
Summary
The City of Crooks approved an amendment to its 2023 zoning regulations (chapters 18 and 19) that requires applicants to post 7 days of notice signage on affected properties and adds an affidavit and verification step for conditional use and rezoning procedures.
The city of Crooks approved an amendment to its 2023 zoning regulations that changes how the municipality notifies neighbors about conditional-use permits and rezoning requests. The chair said the revision "eases the process for city officials" by placing the obligation on applicants to post legal-notice signage on affected properties for seven days.
The chair described an affidavit requirement so an applicant attests that signage was posted and said a city official would "go out and validate and verify" the posting. The amendment text read into the record specifically references chapters 18 and 19 of the revised 2023 zoning regulations and adds ramifications if signage is not posted in accordance with the ordinance; the chair said in that case a public hearing "will not" (remarks in transcript trail off) proceed as though notice had been given.
No members of the public spoke for or against the amendment during the hearing. After the hearing closed the chair asked for a motion to approve; a motion was made and seconded and the body approved the amendment by voice vote. The chair stated "Motion carries."
