Plans for Bethany corridor nearing completion
There’s just a few more steps to go before plans for Liberty’s Bethany corridor are officially added to the books. And that means, for those interested, there’s a few more chances to add your 2 pennies.
Following the Thursday, March 4, work session (when about 25 or so showed up to hear the latest presentation), the plan will now head to the township’s zoning commission April 5, then on to a public hearing before trustees April 20 and finally to the Butler County Planning Commission on May 11.
Once all three entities hear it (and approve it), the plan will be a part of the township’s comprehensive plan.
At the work session Thursday, there was still some apprehension on behalf of some existing business and property owners, who feel a trustee’s going to show up on their doorstep in the near future with an eviction notice.
It’s not the case, never has been and never will be. Trustees have continued to say that development will lead the charge to how the Bethany corridor turns out. They’re simply creating a plan to guide future development. Besides, do you really think a guy like Trustee Dave Kern would be all for the government showing up and saying “Time to move on…” Probably as likely as Kern stumping for the federal stimulus package. In other words, it ain’t.
Still, there’s not been a lot of trust issued to the government at any level as of late, so it’s not all that surprising.
Here’s a link to the township’s Web site where the Bethany plan is detailed.
And another link to the township’s comprehensive plan.
