REZONING BOARD

AUGUST 16, 2004

The Vanderburgh County Rezoning Board met in session this 16^th day of August, 2004 at 6:58 p.m. in Room 307 of the Civic Center Complex with President Catherine Fanello presiding. The rezoning petitions were heard during the course of the regular Commission meeting.

President Fanello: Rezoning.

President Fanello: Where’s Bev?

Commissioner Mosby: I don’t know.

President Fanello: I know, nobody likes to stay for rezonings.

Unidentified: I’ll stay for it.

President Fanello: We have one first reading, VC-8-2004, Cross Pointe Commerce Corporation from Ag to C-4.

Commissioner Mosby: Motion to accept.

Commissioner Crouch: Second.

President Fanello: So ordered.

President Fanello: We have one final reading, VC-7-2004, Arbors at Eastland, change from Ag to R-3. Is there anyone here to speak to that?

Jeff Boss: Jeff Boss with Sterling Development, Mishiwaka. We purchased, originally purchased an easement to access a property that didn’t have any road frontage off of Old Boonville Highway. We ran into some snags on being able to set a directional sign and informational sign on Old Boonville Highway directing people to our property. We understand that it has to be, the property has to be contiguous and owned by the same owner. We have recently acquired the easement in our name now, and rezoning that Ag to meet the same zoning as in the Arbors, which is multi family for the purpose of setting a sign on site, an informational, directional sign. It was all in the original plans and we just missed the fact that it was considered an off-site sign, which is not an acceptable method.

Commissioner Crouch: And that was unanimously approved, wasn’t it?

Commissioner Mosby: Any remonstrators?

President Fanello: Are there any remonstrators out there?

Commissioner Mosby: Motion to adopt and call the roll.

Commissioner Crouch: Second.

President Fanello: So ordered. Roll call vote, Commissioner Crouch?

Commissioner Crouch: Yes.

President Fanello: Commissioner Mosby?

Commissioner Mosby: Aye.

President Fanello: And I vote yes. Rezoning passes.

Madelyn Grayson: Mr. Boss, I just had a couple...the ordinance does not have a two inch margin at the top, so I’m one dollar short on the recording fee. And I also need the ordinance e-mailed to me for advertising in the paper. I’ve got a business card here if you want to–

Jeff Boss: Can I give you the dollar now?

Madelyn Grayson: That would be great.

President Fanello: Do I have a, if there’s no other business--

Commissioner Mosby: Motion to adjourn.

Commissioner Crouch: Second.

President Fanello: So ordered.
