This item concerns a proposed amendment to the Official Zoning Map, identified as Z-2026-07. The Board of County Commissioners will hold a public hearing to consider adopting an ordinance that would change the zoning designation for a specific area. This rezoning case was previously heard and approved by the Planning Board. The proposed ordinance includes provisions for severability, inclusion in the official code, and sets an effective date.
