PUBLIC HEARING - TO CONSIDER A PETITION SUBMITTED BY STEPHEN ZEHNDER TO REZONE A 6.91-ACRE PARCEL OF LAND OWNED BY HIM AT 743 S. MAIN STREET, TAX KEY NO. 11-050-06-08-005 FROM R-3 SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT TO A-1 AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT Dickmann read an e-mail from Carol Rosewitz (attached), neighbor to the subject property, stating concerns with property values and wants the property to remain residential. Suzanne Flynn, next door neighbor, stated that she used to own this property and she and her husband tried to develop the land and they were told no. These people want to do something that is non-offensive and she can’t understand why it’s not allowed. Wagner asked when she tried to develop the property. Flynn stated that it was in 2000 and was told that the Village would never let them develop that property. Wagner stated that the Board was provided with all of the information submitted by Mr. Zehnder and all the information that was distributed for the May 4th Plan Commission Meeting. Zehnder stated that they moved here a short time ago. They would like to have chickens and need agricultural zoning. The current R-3 Residential District zoning does not allow for any farm animals. Dickmann stated that at the Plan Commission the thought was that the Village would be moving away from community by approving. Belling stated that the Plan Commission felt that the decision should be based on highest and best used of the property and that would be residential.  June 8, 2021 Flynn reiterated that the Village turned down any development. Wagner stated that it was 21 years ago and the Zoning Code has been updated since that time. Discussion continued regarding what animals Zehnder would like to have, including but not limited to, chickens and goats. Wagner explained the procedural process to petition for a change to the zoning code to allow for chickens in a residential district. She stated that an individual would have to petition for a zoning code text amendment. Zehnder stated that he would like more than just chickens. Nicholas Thill, who lives across the street, stated there is plenty of land there and doesn’t see the issue with the re-zoning. He added that he is not worried about his property values. Belling stated that he still believes it should remain residential. Flynn stated that you are rendering the property useless since the Village will not allow residential expansion in that area. Wagner stated again that the Zoning Code has been updated from 21 years ago. Wagner stated that the Village looks at all aspects of the property when considering development in the Village. Belling wanted to know why someone would not want to develop the property. Wagner added that Zehnder knew the zoning classification of the property when he purchased it. Fischer stated that he is of the mind that it is his property, let him do what he wants with it. Wagner stated by changing the zoning the property owner would be able to have whatever animals are allowed in the agricultural zoning district. Dickmann read the regulations/limits on animals for agricultural zoning. Fischer said the next owner can just change it back. Wagner stated that the Village does not change it back. The new owner would have to petition to have the property rezoned to residential. CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING Hearing no other comments, Dickmann requested a motion to close the Public Hearing.
