_____
_____
_____

1.

All rezoning requests shall be presented in writing to town hall with necessary information to make the proposals clear, and with a sound and logical reasoning why the rezoning request is needed.

2.

A request for a change is a claim that the existing zone is a mistake, that the planning commission and the legislative body made a mistake. Therefore, the petitioner should be prepared to present a detailed justification showing the change is needed and will benefit the general welfare and not the vested interests of a few persons.

3.

Rezoning requests shall be presented five (5) days prior to the meeting in order to give the staff time to study each request.

4.

No special meeting will be called to consider a rezoning request unless it is of a scope which seems to warrant such meeting.

5.

Special persons will be asked to attend the planning commission meeting if they feel that additional information is necessary and that they may have some helpful information.

To be filled out by secretary of the planning commission.
