3:05

Okay.

3:05

They approved it for our RLD 60.

3:08

Yes, and the original legislation was already drafted as RLD 50.

3:15

Okay.

3:16

And planning commission can't.

3:18

Why is it okay?

3:19

It's not marked as amend.

3:21

Be well, yes.

3:22

So we're it came after they've already done it.

3:25

We didn't have to re-advertise because it was a lesser intense rezoning, so that's the reason why we're gonna amend it here tonight.

3:32

Got it.

3:33

And it's going from RLD 50 to RLD 60.

3:35

Correct.

3:36

4:27

Conflicting recommendations there as well.

4:30

Well, what was the Planning commission's reason for approval?

4:38

Um, the planning commission looked at the surrounding area, especially the quadrants of Pulaski Road in 295, and found that the other three uh quadrants of it were commercially zoned, so they felt that the rezoning from residential to commercial was appropriate.

4:52

Okay.

4:55

Was there any opposition in the planning commission?

4:59

No, there was not.

5:00

Okay.

5:09

6:27

We are going to be taking this one up first on the agenda today.

6:34

So we'll mark that as number one on the agenda.

6:39

And the amendment obviously is to make it a grant or deny the appeal.

6:45

We give them five minutes each.

6:47

Can I give them more time for the rebuttal off the cuff?

6:50

Summary of Proceedings

Agenda Review and Procedural Setup for Jacksonville City Council Meeting - June 16, 2026

This agenda meeting, called to order at 4:30 PM on June 16, 2026, served as a procedural preview for the upcoming city council meeting scheduled for 5:00 PM the same day. Council members and staff reviewed the list of items, noted changes to recommendations, deferred a large block of legislation, and organized the order of business.

Discussion Items

  • Item 9 (2026-295): Staff noted that the Planning Commission condition will likely not be adopted because the parties have agreed it is no longer necessary. The item is expected to be an open-close-move without amendment.
  • Item 10 (2026-304): The Planning Department and Planning Commission recommend denial. The item will be an ex parte open-close-move.
  • Item 15 (2026-367): Rezoning from RLD-50 to RLD-60. The legislation was originally drafted as RLD-50, but Planning Commission approved RLD-60. Because it is a less intense rezoning, re-advertising was not required, so the item will be an amended move.
  • Item 21 (2026-373): An amendment will be offered during the meeting; the item will be an ex parte open-close amend and move.
  • Item 22 (2026-374): Conflicting recommendations. Planning Commission approved rezoning from residential to commercial, citing that the other three quadrants of Pulaski Road and I-295 are commercially zoned. No opposition was noted at the Planning Commission.
  • Items 24-39 (2026-420 through 2026-439): All deferred to the next public hearing cycle, scheduled for July 21, 2026.
  • Item 48 (2026-472): Appeal by Mr. Herzberg. This will be taken up first on the actual council agenda. The council will vote to grant or deny the appeal; each side will be allowed five minutes for presentation and rebuttal.

Key Outcomes

  • Deferrals: Items 24 through 39 were deferred to July 21, 2026, for public hearing.
  • Amendments Announced: Items 15, 21, and 22 will have amendments presented during the council meeting.
  • Agenda Reordering: Item 48 (Herzberg appeal) will be moved to the first action item on the council agenda.
  • No votes were taken during this agenda meeting; all decisions will be made at the 5:00 PM council session.
