Page 2
1. That proper posting, publication and public notice were provided as required by law for the hearings before the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners of Jefferson County.
2. That the hearing before the Planning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners were extensive and complete, that all pertinent facts, matters and issues were submitted and that all interested parties were heard at those hearings.
3. That the proposal does not conform to the recommendations noted on Map P2 for residential development in Use Area 59. The proposed nursery and landscape business use does not conform with the General Land Use Plan recommendation for this area.
4. The proposed land use is not compatible with existing and allowable land uses in the surrounding area in all directions. There are residential uses to the north and east and residential zoning to the south. The type of use proposed, which requires outside storage of landscape materials and equipment and lengthy hours of operation, is not compatible with the adjacent residential uses.
5. That for the above stated reasons, the applied for rezoning is not in the best interest of the health, safety, morals, convenience, order, prosperity and welfare of the residents of Jefferson County.
6. That each of the factors set fourth above is adequate independently to support this resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Rezoning Application Case No. 98015017RZP1 to amend Jefferson County Zoning Map No. 78 to rezone the Residential-Two and Planned Development Zone District to Planned Development Amended Zone District for the following described unincorporated area of Jefferson County, be and hereby is DENIED.
