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
homestead. The only permitted uses
allowed under 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 adja-
cent IX Zoned parcels located to the
south. A tree farming operation is
currently located on the adjacent IX
zoned parcels. Other uses surround-
ing the subject parcel are mixed,
including existing and proposed ag-
ricultural, residential and industrial
light uses. The industrial, light uses
are located to the north and ac-
cessed from Orange Avenue.
