Ordinance) of Randy W. Lynch, off SR 2417 , Liberty
Township, would be postponed until the next regular

concerning his easement .
4 . Vice Chairman Craven stated that the next request
• (for a Variance from the County Unified Development
Ordinance) was J. Wilson Hunt, developer and the
applicant ' s agent, Paul Bollinger .
Hal Johnson, Planning Director, gave a brief review
of the case of the Variance for the proposed
development of Asheton Woods Subdivision, Phases II
and III (approximately 50 acres) located on SR 1404
• (Fuller Mill Road) in Tabernacle Township. Johnson
stated that this case is an appeal from the inter-
pretation of the County Director of Planning and
Zoning relative to current County Zoning Regula-
tions that require single wide manufactured housing
subdivisions to be located in the appropriate
zoning district. Johnson stated that the Board
heard pro and con aqruments concerning this case at
the Board of Adjustment meeting, February 14 , 1989 .
In September 1983 the Board of Commissioners passed
new Zoning regulations that required a major
"subdivision to be located in the proper zoning
district for type of development . The two zoning
districts designated for major residential subdi-
vision development were Mixed Residential (MR) and
Restricted Residential (RR) . The MR zoning
district allows development of site built homes ,
single wide mobile homes, and double wide mobile
homes . The RR zoning district allows development
of site built homes and Class A double wide manu-
factured homes on permanent foundations. The
original plat of Asheton Woods , Section 1 (preli
minary) was submitted in July 1987 and did not show
specific additional development such as individual
lot surveys and road design, although it did
reflect future development. Johnson opened the
meeting for discussion of the Board.
Guy Troy, Board member , stated that after studying

the testimony (given at the previous meeting) , he
did not feel that there had been any financial loss
of the developer and that he felt the decision of
the Planning Board should be upheld, for these
reasons he would make the motion to deny this
request for a Variance-
s., Ray Farlow, Board member , stated that the Board
looked long and hard about the impact Section 1
would have on this community before it was
approved. Farlow added that he felt this property
would be more enhanced to develop in large tracts.
Bill Dorsett, Board member, expressed his concerns
of the density of this area. Dorsett added that
the Board didn' t give the developer any reason to
believe that Sections 2 & 3 would be approved.
Charles Adams, Board member , seconded Guy Troy' s
motion (to deny the request) . The motion passed
unanimously.
Hal Johnson was asked to prepare the Order of the
Board of Adjustment and forward it to the appli-
cant .
5. The Board of Adjustment adjourned at 7 : 20 p.m.
