Necessary Findings


Before any map amendment is granted, the Planning Commission and/or Fiscal Court must find that:

1) The map amendment is in agreement with the county’s comprehensive plan.

2) That the original zoning classification given to the property was inappropriate or improper, and/or,

3) That there have been major changes of an economic, physical, or social nature within the area involved which were not anticipated in the county’s comprehensive plan, which have substantially altered the basic character of such area.

Before making recommendations to the Meade County Fiscal Court on a proposed map amendment, the Planning Commission shall make findings of fact, as required by Kentucky Revised Statutes, Chapter 100, and shall forward it’s findings of fact and recommendation in writing to the Meade County Fiscal Court.
