BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
Notice of Public Hearing
The Liberty Township Board of Zoning Appeals ("the Board") will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, the 8th day of July, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. at the Liberty Township Community Center, 21463 SR 347 (Main St.), Raymond, Ohio 43067.
TO ADDRESS ITEMS OF BUSINESS:
-- The Board shall consider an application for a Conditional Use Permit by Martin Wilt regarding his intent to utilize a single-unit manufactured home as a new residence on property he owns at 23253 Rapp Dean Road, Raymond, Ohio 43067. Mr. Wilt's proposal is defined in the Liberty Township Zoning Resolution ("the Resolution") as a conditional use, which may be approved only by the Board after a public hearing.
-- The Board shall consider an application for a zoning Variance submitted by the same Applicant regarding the same property and structure on Rapp Dean Road. Mr. Wilt proposes to permanently place a single-unit manufactured home on the property which offers significantly less living space than the minimum area normally required by the Resolution for a new residence in that District.
Any person with standing in these matters is invited to attend and offer comments at the hearing, or to submit written comments to the Board by way of the office of the Zoning Inspector. Written comments may be sent to:
Liberty Township Zoning
P.O. Box 122
Raymond, Ohio 43067

In order to be considered, written comments must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on the day of the hearing. All comments must be signed; anonymous comments will be discarded without consideration.
