Board of Zoning Appeals

bzaRedPost was in front of the local Board of Zoning Appeals this past Tuesday afternoon for a variance request to do our light assembly work in the building we’ve been doing it in for the past almost 2 years. From the Goshen News:

Following the church variance vote, board members heard a variance request from RedPost and Lucid Energy Technologies regarding research, development, assembly and recycling of e-waste at their facilities, both located at 118 E. Washington St. Gina Leichty represented Lucid while Eric Kanagy represented RedPost.

The variance should have been sought before both businesses began operating and neither members of the board nor City Planner Joe Hauflaire knew why it hadn’t occurred then.

The variance request was approved with multiple conditions regarding commercial production, hours of operation, what type of research and development would be permitted, semi-trailer deliveries and number of employees.

I get a sort of sick pleasure out of these meetings, in that, I love the process, as messy as it is, for making public decisions like these. It’s just so…fun. It’s sick because I should just be bored, not enjoying myself.
