The City Council adopted Ordinance 2025-168 to amend the 2045 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map designation of a 5.83± acre property at 6535 General Lee Road from Low Density Residential (LDR) to Medium Density Residential (MDR). The subject parcel, located in Council District 10 and owned by Walter Steven Ratley, Connie Allen and Donna Jean Stanley, was the focus of a Small-Scale Application (L-6002-24C) filed by Curtis Hart. Following advisory review by the Planning and Development Department, recommendation by the Planning Commission as the Local Planning Agency, and public hearings before the Land Use and Zoning Committee and full City Council, the amendment was approved to allow for medium density residential development. The change aligns with policies encouraging efficient use of land, provision of a broader range of housing types, and support for future multifamily or townhouse development. This amendment does not exempt the property from other local, state, or federal regulations, and all required permits and approvals must be obtained prior to development. Effective dates will follow state statutory timelines for Small-Scale Amendments.
