For example, if someone applies to change the zoning from residential to commercial, regardless of the special conditions on the site, the key question is whether a business should be located on that property and whether it meets the general purposes of the ordinance. Such rezoning, and consequent changes to the plan may not individually have a large impact, but taken collectively, may indicate the need to revise or modify the plan to meet continuing demands for growth and development. Figure 20 on the following page provides a map of existing Zoning patterns. Table 18 (below) shows the acreage and share totals for each major Zoning category within existing Town limits, the Town’s ETJ and for the two areas combined.
