Under Communications, Chair Snyder informed the Planning Commission of a Code Reform

6:00-9:00 pm at Andrews University in Berrien Springs. Anyone wishing to attend should

Under New Business, the request from the Three Oaks Township Board of Trustees for a 
zoning amendment to the 2008 Official Zoning Map for Property Code 11-20-001-0014-6-1 
changing the zoning of that parcel from a Agricultural/Rural Residential District, as 
shown on the 2008 Zoning Map, to an Industrial District was discussed. Secretary Marigold 
presented as evidence the minutes of the July 19, 1994 Planning Commission Public Hearing 
and regular meeting minutes where the Planning Commission recommended approval of changing 
the above mentioned parcel from a Residential/Ag District to a Limited Industrial District 
to the Three Oaks Township Board of Trustees. A copy of the minutes of the Three Oaks 
Township Board of Trustees special meeting on August 22, 1994 making that change was 
presented. On advice of legal counsel of Three Oaks Township since the Official Zoning 
Map of 2008 was approved in error it is then necessary to amend the Official Zoning Map 
of 2008. A motion by Mitchell, supported by Kramer, to amend the Official Zoning Map of 
2008 showing Parcel Code 11-20-001-0014-6-1 at 5455 US 12 to be included in an Industrial 
District. The motion was approved 5-0.

Having no other business to come before the Planning Commission, a motion to adjourn by 
Kramer, supported by Mitchell. The motion was approved 5-0. Chair Snyder adjourned the 
meeting at 7:27 pm.

 
George A. Mangold, Secretary
