Whenever the public necessity, convenience, general welfare, or good zoning practice require, the Town Board may, by ordinance, change the district boundaries or amend, change, or supplement the regulations established by this chapter or amendments thereto. Such change or amendment shall be subject to the review and recommendation of the Plan Commission.

A change or amendment may be initiated by the Town Board or Plan Commission or by a petition of one or more of the owners or lessees of property within the area proposed to be changed.

Petitions for any change to the district boundaries or amendments to the regulations shall be filed with the Town Clerk, describe the premises to be rezoned or the regulations to be amended, list the reasons justifying the petition, and specify the proposed use.

The Plan Commission shall review all proposed changes and amendments within the corporate limits and shall recommend that the petition be granted as requested, modified and granted, or denied.

The Town Board shall hold a public hearing upon each petition giving public notice thereof as specified in Article XIV, listing the time, place, and the changes of amendments proposed. The Town Board shall also give at least 10 days' prior written notice to the clerk of any municipality within 1,000 feet of any land to be affected by the proposed change or amendment.

As soon as possible after such public hearing, and after careful consideration of the Plan Commission's recommendations, the Town Board shall act on the petition either approving, modifying and approving, or disapproving of the same.
