The rezoning changes the designation of the 0.26± acre site at 454 E. 2ND AVE. from R-4, Residential District to L-M, Limited Manufacturing District. This allows for the development of the site with a driveway and access point to service the adjacent manufacturing uses located to the north. Despite the current residential zoning, the site is more consistent with the industrial character of the surrounding area. The proposal includes commitments to landscape screening along the east side of the site, providing a buffer between the industrial and residential areas.
This rezoning facilitates industrial expansion in an area already transitioning from residential to manufacturing uses, providing necessary access for industrial operations while incorporating landscaping to mitigate the impact on nearby residential properties.
