LINCOLN - When the Logan County Board
met for its Regular Committee of the Whole voting session on Tuesday
night, once again there were numerous guests present. A number of
people attended in reference to a rezoning request at Oak Hill
Estates in rural Mount Pulaski.

The subdivision located in southern Logan County is bounded by
1600th Avenue and 200th Street. The Ellis family, who requested the
rezone, owns ten acres of land over several plots within the
subdivision adjacent to their residence. The owners request was to
rezone the land from CH (Country Homes) to Agriculture.
Prior to the county board vote, the request was recommended for
approval by the Regional Planning Commission in December. However,
the Zoning Board of Appeals recommended to deny the application.
Several questions were posed at last week's County Board meeting

When the matter was brought forward, there was no additional
discussion from the board members or any of the guests in
attendance, and the board voted.
The request was denied with a vote of six-to-four, with Pat O’Neill,
Chuck Ruben, Andy Anderson, and Robert Farmer voting yes; and Gene
Rohlfs, David Blankenship, Emily Davenport, Kevin Bateman, Rick
Aylesworth and Scott Schaffenacher voting no.
