The commission approved three zoning map amendments: Matthew and Stacy Cook’s 20.27‑acre parcel was rezoned to allow an R‑1 outcome with septic-density limits after discussion; a 1‑acre parcel on Highway 18 was rezoned to commercial; and a 20‑acre parcel near the Hamilton 4 interchange was approved for commercial zoning. Staff emphasized septic density limits and infrastructure conditions.
