Summary of Proceedings

Greenville Planning and Zoning Commission Special Meeting - June 9, 2026

The Greenville Planning and Zoning Commission held a special meeting on June 9, 2026, at 6:00 PM in City Hall Council Chambers. The sole agenda item was a rezoning request by IHS Development, LLC for 42.07 acres along the eastern right-of-way of Charles Boulevard and at the current terminus of Interlude Drive. After a staff presentation and board discussion, the commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the rezoning.

Discussion Items

  • Rezoning Request (IHS Development, LLC): Staff planner Shantae Gooby presented the proposal to rezone the property from Office (O) to four tracts: Tract 1 (4.82 acres) to Office-Residential High Density Multi-family (OR), Tract 2 (9.37 acres) to Residential High Density Multi-family (R6), Tract 3 (16.13 acres) to Residential Single-Family (R6S), and Tract 4 (11.75 acres) to Residential Single-Family (R15S). Under the proposed zoning, the site would yield an estimated 150–170 multifamily units and 115–135 single-family lots, compared to 320,000–340,000 square feet of office space under current zoning. Staff stated the request is consistent with the Horizon Plan and Future Land Use Map and recommended approval.
  • Traffic Impact Discussion: Commissioners raised concerns about traffic congestion on Charles Boulevard, particularly with the added vehicles from up to 265 residential units. The current Average Daily Traffic (ADT) on Charles Boulevard is approximately 23,800, operating at Level of Service (LOS) D (design capacity 29,900). The proposed development would add about 2,200 daily trips, a net decrease of 439 trips compared to full office build-out. The city traffic engineer confirmed no traffic impact study would be required, as the volume is below the threshold. At the future access point, the state would likely require a driveway permit, a right-turn lane, and alignment with Exchange Drive, but no immediate plans for a traffic signal exist. The LOS would remain at D, adding roughly 2–3% to the ADT.

Key Outcomes

  • Motion to Recommend Approval: Commissioner made a motion to recommend approval of the rezoning amendment, finding it consistent with the comprehensive plan and adopting the staff report. The motion was seconded and passed unanimously (all ayes, no nays).
  • Adjournment: The meeting was adjourned following the vote.
