OF THE
REXBURG PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
FOR REQUESTED
ZONE CHANGE & OVERLAY
1. On November 3, 2003, A. Lyle Smith presented to the Rexburg City Clerk a Request and
Application for a rezone on a parcel of about 12 acres of property located at
approximately 512 S. Millhollow in the City of Rexburg, the requested rezone of the
property was from Rural Residential 2 (RR2) to Low Density Residential (LDR) with a
Professional Overlay.
2. On December 16, 2003, the City Clerk sent the Notice of Public Hearing to be published
in the local newspaper on December 17, 2003, and January 5, 2004. A notice was posted
on the property and sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the above mentioned
property.
3. On January 8, 2004, Sally Smith appeared before the Planning & Zoning Commission for
the City of Rexburg requesting a rezone from Rural Residential 2 (RR2) to Low Density
Residential (LDR) with a Professional Overlay on the property located at approximately
512 S. Millhollow (The said property is located between Shoshone Avenue and South
Millhollow Road. The north/south boundary is south of Rolling Hills Drive and north of
512 South Millhollow Road in Rexburg, Madison County, Idaho, and more particularly
described as follows: see attached map. A portion of the NW 1/4 of the SE '/4 of Section
29, Township 6 North, Range 40 East, Boise Meridian, Madison County, Idaho. There
was some input from some of the neighbors who strongly opposed the requested zone
change. A motion was made by Planning & Zoning to recommend to the City Council
that the request to change the zone from RR2 to LDR be approved; however, the
Planning & Zoning commission further recommended that the request for the
Professional Overlay be denied, as it was inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan in
that it did not represent a transitional area between commercial and residential areas.
Furthermore, it was not consistent with the general plan for residential use within the
area as evidenced by the property owners in the immediate vicinity.
These findings accurately and completely represent the facts as they have occurred as of this 4h
day of February, 2004.
