(A) Published notice. Before adopting or amending this chapter, the Board of County Commissioners shall conduct a public hearing on the proposal. A notice of the public hearing shall be given once a week for two successive calendar weeks in a newspaper having general circulation in the area. The notice shall be published for the first time not less than ten days nor more than 25 days before the date fixed for the meeting.
(B) Posting. In addition to the published notice required by division (A) of this section, whenever a change or amendment to the Official Zoning Map is applied for or made affecting a particular parcel or parcels of land within any district which otherwise requires a public hearing under this chapter, a sign notifying the public of the public hearing shall be posted on the property not less than ten days prior to the date of such hearing; provided, however, this requirement is not intended to apply to any textural changes in the chapter itself which do not require changes to the Official Zoning Map.
(C) Letter notification. Whenever there is a zoning classification action involving a parcel of land, the owner of that parcel of land as shown on the county tax listing, and the owners of all parcels of land abutting that parcel of land as shown on the county tax listing, shall be mailed a notice of the proposed classification by first class mail at the last addresses listed for such owners on the county tax abstracts. The person or persons mailing such notices shall certify to the Board of Commissioners that fact, and such certificate shall be deemed conclusive in the absence of fraud.
