Agenda Item 3 – Unfinished Business
Secretary Bickley reviewed the proposed zoning amendments for the accessory structure requirements. Secretary Bickley also noted the following proposed addition to the “A” District Sign requirements: For subdivisions, condominiums, or other developments, a single identification sign not exceeding forty-eight (48) square feet in area including the supporting structure shall be permitted. Secretary Bickley noted that the Black Swamp Conservancy filed a zoning permit application for an identification sign for property on Muggy Road. The application was denied. The amendment would allow the sign application to be approved.
Chairman Davenport noted that in June, the Commission agreed to revisit the sign regulations within six (6) months.
