Summary

The Board of Zoning Appeals continued UVAR-2026-0012 (landscaping business at 4634 Schwartz Rd) to the June agenda after Legal Counsel said a required member recused, leaving the board without a quorum.

Adam Day, Chair of the Allen County Board of Zoning Appeals, opened consideration of UVAR-2026-0012, an application from Andrew Knapp seeking permission for a landscaping business at 4634 Schwartz Rd in A1 agricultural zoning. Legal Counsel Robert Eherenman explained that Board member Jerry Ehle was required to recuse himself on the item; with that recusal the board did not have a quorum and could not act.

Because the board lacked a quorum, the hearing record states the proposal was continued to the June agenda. The minutes list Andrew Knapp as the applicant and specify the item id UVAR-2026-0012; no vote on the merits of the application was taken.
