A controversial zoning overlay is scheduled for consideration by the Liberty Township trustees, absent support from the township’s Zoning Commission.
Trustees will hold a public hearing on the proposal at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 16. The meeting will be livestreamed on the Liberty Township Trustees Delaware County YouTube channel. Trustees set 5:30 p.m. Feb.18 as time to continue the hearing if needed.
The planned overlay district would create subareas within the overlay, each zoned for particular uses: commercial, office/medical, technology and multifamily residential, for example.
Attorney Steve Cuckler, representing the developers and landowners, said the proposal would set the stage for a diversified tax base in the township while also taking a “holistic” approach to development in the area, particularly as it relates to land along Sawmill Parkway in the northern part of the township.
