Statutes, the entity proposing the zoning change shall mail a

written notice within thirty (30) days of the hearing to all real

property owners within one-quarter (1/4) of a mile where the area to

be affected is located and shall be responsible for all costs

incurred in mailing this notice. The notice shall contain the:

agency, government instrumentality or agency, institution, county,

incorporated municipality or municipal authority or trust in which

any governmental entity is a beneficiary, venture, or other legal

entity however organized.

B. If a municipality proposes zoning reclassifications in order

to revise its comprehensive plan or official map or to identify

areas which require specific land use development due to topography,

geography, or other distinguishing features, including but not

limited to floodplain, drainage, historic preservation, and blighted

areas, the governing body may require, in addition to the notice

requirements provided for in Section 43-104 of this title, a sign to

be posted on designated properties within the area affected by the

proposed zoning reclassification. The sign and the lettering

thereon shall be of sufficient size so as to be clearly visible and

legible from the public street or streets toward which it faces.

The notice shall state:

1. The date, time, and place of the public hearing;

2. Who will conduct the public hearing;

3. The desired zoning classification;

4. The proposed use of the property; and

5. Other information as may be necessary to provide adequate
