Resident voices objection to AHZ rezoning, says parcel contains two homes
Summary
During public comment resident Dennis Patterson told the Planning Commission he believes the 5.5-acre parcel included in rezoning application Z25-016 contains two homes and therefore should not qualify for Agricultural Heritage Zone status; he urged the commission to consider submitted photos and records.
During the Jan. 15 meeting resident Dennis Patterson addressed the Planning Commission in public comment to object to the commission's recommendation on Z25-016.
Patterson said information and photographs submitted previously show people living on the parcel and that there are two homes on the property. "At 5.5 acres it does not qualify for the AHZ," he said, adding that he was "disappointed that my neighbors have to live next to a crappy looking mobile home that probably cost $1,000 parked in the driveway." Patterson stated he was not opposed to the AHZ designation in principle but said the facts in this case, in his view, do not meet the zone's expectations and that a precedent may be set by approving the change.
The transcript contains Patterson's remarks but does not record a staff or commissioner rebuttal providing verification or disproving his assertions during this meeting. The commission's recommendation on Z25-016 was forwarded to the County Commission; Patterson's concerns were entered into the public record and will be part of the file considered by the County Commission.
