Township votes against CUP zone change amid water and sewer fears
Township voters defeated a zone change for the land on November 4. The Planning and Zoning Commission and trustees rejected recommending the conditional use permit CUP which does not require a zone change. The Rural Zoning Commission approved the CUP. An appeals court ruled a CUP is administrative and not subject to referendum, a decision likely to be appealed to the Ohio Supreme Court by Colerain Township residents.
