Request for a Change In Zoning from IX to AG-5
Project Description
Mr. & Mrs. Keeney have requested a
change in zoning from the IX
(Industrial, Extraction) Zoning District
to AG-5 (Agricultural—1 du/5ac)
Zoning District for an 11.6 acre lot
located on the east side of Trow-
bridge Road, 1,380 feet south of Or-
ange Avenue. The purpose of the
request is to allow a single family
home. The only permitted uses un-
der the existing IX Zoning District are
mining and mobile food vendors.
The proposed change in zoning
would convert the parcel back to an
agricultural zoning district which ex-
isted on the parcel prior to a 1989
change in zoning to IX (Industrial,
Extraction). Mining has never oc-
curred on the parcel, or the two IX
zoned parcels located to the south. A
tree farming operation is currently
located on the adjacent IX zoned
parcels.
parcels. Other uses surrounding the
subject parcel are mixed, including
existing and proposed agricultural,
residential and industrial light uses.
The industrial, light uses are adja-
cent to the north and accessed from
Orange Avenue.
Previous Action

& Zoning Commission recommend-
ed approval by a vote of 5-0.
