Body
BACKGROUND:
Petitioner, Mark Davis of Woodland Baptist, is requesting to rezone 0.568 acres, which is developed as a parking lot and part of a larger 3.5-acre parcel owned by Peoria Rescue Ministries.
Woodland Baptist Church is located at 6915 N Allen Road, immediately north of Peoria Rescue Ministries located at 6847 N Allen Road. Each property has a Special Use approval. In 2008, Ordinance No. 16,275 modified the special use boundaries of both properties to remove/add 0.568 acres respectively. See attached ordinance no. 16,275. The current request to rezone aligns with the special use boundary amendments approved in 2008. Upon approval of this rezoning, a survey plat will be recorded to transfer ownership of the 0.568 acres and amend the property line.
The Planning & Zoning Commission found that the request met the Findings of Fact and voted 6 to 0 to APPROVE the request.
See the attached Planning & Zoning Commission case packet and meeting minutes for detailed information.
