The Union Planning Commission has considered the request for rezoning from Randy Shotliff for land at Territorial Rd and M for several months. This was for a phased development that would ultimately be 100 homes. There were several meetings where public input of neighbors was listened to.
Tonight at the Eager Free Public Library on a 4-3 vote, on a motion by Doug Zweisig that cited sections in the land use as well as housing sections of the Smart Growth Plan for Union which was adopted this past year, the Planning Commission voted to reject the rezoning request.
The Observer will have full audio and selected video of this meeting.

I was really, really, suprised by this. My speakers are not working on the computer so maybe someone can explain this to me. I am just so surprised by at least for the city of Evansville, no one is ever told no, unless there is a blue moon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Observer for keeping the people informed of this issue. Thank you to the Town of Union Plan Commission for listening to the town residents and for the courage to take a stand to control growth and preserve farmland.
