Before any zoning permit is issued affecting any land within 300 feet of the centerline of a proposed new highway or a highway for which changes are proposed as described in the certification to local officials by the Director of the Ohio Department of Transportation, or any land within a radius of 500 feet from the point of intersection of said centerline with any public road or highway, the Zoning Inspector shall give notice, by registered or certified mail to the Director of the Department of Transportation. The Zoning Inspector shall not issue a zoning permit for 120 days from the date the notice is received by the Director of the Department of Transportation. If the Director of the Department of Transportation notifies the Zoning Inspector that the Director shall proceed to acquire the land needed, then the Zoning Inspector shall refuse to issue the zoning permit. If the Director of the Department of Transportation notifies the Zoning Inspector that acquisition at this time is not in the public interest, the Zoning Inspector shall, if the application is in conformance with all provision of this Ordinance, issue the zoning permit in conformance with the provisions of Section 1143.04.
