BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS SCRIPT
for Zoning Map Amendment Application (Z24-19)
Request by Cindee Wolf with Design Solutions, applicant, on behalf of Harry Wilson with H N
Investments, LLC to rezone approximately 5.17 acres located at 308 Hermitage Road from the (CZD) CS,
Conditional Commercial Services District to a new (CZD) CS District for the use of Wholesale Nursery and
a limited list of prohibited uses.
1. This is a public hearing. We will hear a presentation from staff. Then the applicant and any
opponents will each be allowed 15 minutes for their presentation and an additional 5
minutes for rebuttal.
2. Conduct Hearing, as follows:
a. Staff presentation
b. Applicant’s presentation and supporter comments (up to 15 minutes)
c. Opponent’s presentation (up to 15 minutes)
d. Applicant’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
e. Opponent’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes)
f. Staff review of any additional conditions
3. Close the public hearing
4. Board discussion
5. Before we proceed with the vote, I would like to invite the applicant to the podium. Based
on the Board discussion and items presented during the public hearing, would you like
withdraw your petition or proceed with a vote?
6. Vote on the application. The motion should include a statement saying how the change is,
or is not, consistent with the land use plan and why approval or denial of the rezoning
request is reasonable and in the public interest.
Example Motion for Denial
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning. While I find it to be generally CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the project allows the types of
commercial uses encouraged in the Employment Center place type. I find DENIAL of the
rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the project may impact the
future development of an approved commercial business park.
Alternative Motion for Approval (If based on information presented at the public hearing or
other consideration beyond the scope of staff review, the board finds approval appropriate.)
I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning. I find it to be generally CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the project allows the types of
commercial uses encouraged in the Employment Center place type. I find recommending
APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the
rezoning allows the relocation of an existing business that would support the area’s
transition into a service node.
Proposed Conditions:
1. All uses in the CS district are permitted except for the following uses and use categories
listed in Table 4.2.1 Principal Use Table:
o Civic
o Educational Services
o Government Services
o Heath Care Services
o Food & Drink (including Bar / Nightclub)
o Convenience Store
o Food Market
o Grocery Store
o Pharmacy
o Bank and / or Financial Institution
o Carwash
o Commercial Recycling Facility, Large Collection, Small Collection, Processing,
and Processing and Collection
2. Outdoor storage, except for plants, for the Wholesale Nursery and any future uses is
restricted to the Rock & Mulch / Bulk Materials area as shown in the southeastern corner
of the concept plan.
Approval is subject to the applicant signing an agreement acknowledging the applicant’s consent
to all listed conditions. If the applicant does not provide a signed agreement within seven (7)
business days from the date of approval, then the rezoning application considered denied.
Alternative Motion for Approval/Denial:
I move to [Approve/Deny] of the proposed rezoning to a conditional CS district. I find it to
be [Consistent/Inconsistent] with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan
because [insert reasons]
