Zoning Commission

Ohio Revised Code, Chapter Five (5) of ORC V, 519, delegates a range of powers to the Township Zoning Commission.  Though they are not empowered to adopt plans, they may use planning consultants, other professionals and public officials to assist them in drawing up a comprehensive set of zoning regulations or amendments to the existing regulations.  they may then recommend the zoning regulations or amendments they draft to the Township Board of Trustees for adoption subsequent to a public hearing.

The Township Zoning Commission consists of seven (7) residents appointed by the Board of Trustees:  five (5) residents to five-year terms and two (2) residents that serve one (1) year for the current year.  The terms are staggerd so the term of one member expires each year.  The Zoning Commission meets regularly for the purpose of developing and maintaining a plan regulating land use within the Township.  This plan, set forth bot in texts and maps, indicates permitted and prohibited uses of all land within the Township.  Actions of the Zoning Commission are subject to approval of the Board of Trustees.
