The Posey County Area Plan Commission met last week to review a rezone and act on a violation of the county zoning ordinance.

The board reviewed documentation that showed a violation by Dennis Hogan for a mobile home on Blackburn Road.

According to records, Hogan moved in the mobile home before obtaining the permission of the Zoning Board last year.

After setting up the mobile home, he asked the board for its permission for the mobile home. The board denied the permit.

The mobile home was supposed to then be removed from the lot.

Thursday evening, the Zoning Board members agreed to pass the violation of Zoning Ordinance 022293 on to the Area Plan Commission.

The Area Plan had previously sent a letter reminding Hogan to move the trailer.

At the time of last week’s meeting, the mobile home had still not been removed.

The Area Plan board voted to move forward by seeking legal action on the violation.

The board also approved a rezoning for Richard Barton on his land at 7032 Highway 66, lying in Center Township.

The petition to rezone the property from a R-1 District to a B-3 District under Posey County Zoning Ordinance 02-22-93 was approved by the Area Plan Commission.

The legal description of the land is on file in the Area Plan office.
