WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE, Ohio — The city’s planning commission will take up two rezoning requests and a final subdivision plat when it meets Dec. 1, including a bid to convert a Delaware Street house into a two-family duplex and a proposal to rezone a pair of North Street lots for employment use.
The commission is scheduled to meet at 5:30 p.m. at Washington Court House City Hall.
Clinton Black, of Wilmington, has applied to rezone 1312 Delaware St. from R1C single-family residential to R2 two-family residential, according to the agenda. A separate application from Mark Carr seeks to rezone two properties at 1218 and 1222 N. North St. from R2 to GE, a change that would open the sites to employment-related uses.
JLB1 Properties LTD, led by Kyle Reed, is seeking final plat approval for Phase II of the Bishop Estates Subdivision, which would allow the next phase of the residential development to move forward with construction.
Commissioners also plan to revisit two zoning ordinance amendments that have been pending for months. One would add a definition of “family” to the zoning code’s definitions section and was tabled at the commission’s Oct. 6 meeting. The other, which would amend the zoning ordinance to address short-term rental use through services such as Airbnb, has been tabled since February 2023.
The commission is also set to approve minutes from its Oct. 6 and Nov. 3 meetings before taking up the new business.
The information contained in this story was obtained from the City of Washington Court House Planning Commission.
