Summary

The Area Plan Commission approved rezoning for 3701 North Duggar Avenue from C-4 to A-1 to allow farming uses; staff said notices met UCO Section 1n requirements and no remonstrators appeared.

The Vigo County Area Plan Commission approved a rezoning request to change 3701 North Duggar Avenue from C-4 (commercial office) to A-1 (agricultural) to permit farming uses.

President Jared Baylor presented the petition and told the commission the surrounding area is agricultural: “Surrounding uses are all agricultural. The area consists of just basically farm ground all around them.” Baylor said notices were sent to adjacent property owners within a half mile “satisfying section 1n of the UCO.”

Staff reported that barnyard animals are anticipated on the property and that the site was previously used for WPFR FM radio after a 1998 rezoning (noted in the transcript as UCO 61 of ’98). The parcel had been subdivided and is being reconfigured into five lots for the family; staff said only a garage remains from earlier improvements.

The Area Plan Commission and the SAPC forwarded favorable recommendations and there were no remonstrators at the hearing, the staff report said. A motion to approve the rezoning passed with commissioners saying “aye.” The transcript does not record a roll-call tally.
