Discussion Items
- Rezone of AWO, Track Seven, Block One, Lots One Through Ten (1000-1108 Locust Street):
Mr. Perkins presented a request to rezone the property from single-family residential (R7) to multi-family residential (RM). The applicant intends to construct two duplexes per lot (totaling eight units) with courtyards. The property is largely owned by a single entity, with one remaining lot owned by an individual who expressed no opposition as the zoning change does not alter their existing established house.- Vice Chair Martin questioned whether the area would be replatted to align the duplexes appropriately; Mr. Perkins confirmed that a replatting process would follow approval to ensure proper lot placement.
- Commissioner London noted that the area already has multi-family zoning on two sides.
- Commissioner Soule questioned the specific number of units proposed; Mr. Perkins clarified the plan is for two duplexes per lot, not four.
- Commissioner Moore inquired about the replatting process, which was confirmed by Mr. Perkins.
- No other members expressed specific positions of support or opposition beyond clarifying questions.
Key Outcomes
- Voting Results:
- Motion to hold the rezoning request over (Moved by Commissioner Soule, seconded by Commissioner London). Vote passed unanimously ("Aye, Aye, Same sign").
- Directives:
- The rezoning application for 1000-1108 Locust Street is held over for future consideration.
- Next Steps:
- The next meeting is scheduled for January 14, 2026. However, the Chairperson noted that no items are currently inbound for that date, suggesting the meeting might be pushed to a following month.
- Discrepancy Note:
- A minor transcription discrepancy exists regarding the title: the transcript alternates between "Chairman" (referring to Klein after election) and "Vice Pairman" (likely a speech-to-text error for Vice Chairperson) during the closing remarks, while the meeting minutes formally record Tom Martin as Vice Chairperson.
