There has been some discussion that the ballot language for the referendum vote may be somewhat confusing. Directly from the ballot itself is this following statement.
A yes vote means the new zoning classifications for the five parcel portions of the Whitman property approved on December 2, 2008, will be in effect. A no vote means the five parcel portions of the Whitman property will return to their original zoning classifications in effect prior to the rezonings
To clarify, a yes vote indicates your desire to approve of the rezoning as voted on by our township board on December 2, 2008. A no vote indicates your desire to have the zoning return to it’s orginal usage prior to the rezoning vote.
