Commissioners approve correction to official zoning map; no boundary or zone changes
Summary
The board voted to amend the township's official zoning map to correct labeling errors from incremental updates; planners said the action updates records rather than changing zoning districts or boundaries.
Commissioner Guardiola moved to amend Upper Chichester Township's official zoning map to reflect changes tied to zoning ordinance Section 600-6; the motion was seconded and approved on a voice vote.
Township staff said the adopted map had accumulated incremental updates that were not reflected in the official adopted map on file. Planner Brian Seidel provided a corrected zoning map to reconcile labeling and typographical issues. Commissioners emphasized that the amendment corrects map labels and does not redraw zoning boundaries or change zoning designations.
One commissioner asked for an example of what was updated; staff replied that several label abbreviations (for example, industrial labeling) had been inconsistent with the current map and needed correction. The board approved the motion and the clerk recorded the action.
The amendment is administrative in nature; any substantive zoning changes would require a separate process with public notice and ordinance changes.
