Reviewed Aug 18 · outcome not yet confirmed

Every project links to the city packet it came from.

City Council gave first reading to an ordinance to rezone two lots at 2298 Mount Pleasant Street and 1302 Hester Street from Single-Family Residential to General Office classification. This will allow the owner of an existing office building to incorporate the adjacent single-family residence lot into their office use.

What happened

City Council approved the first reading of an ordinance to rezone 2298 Mt. Pleasant St. and 1302 Hester St. from Single-Family Residential (SR-1) to General Office (GO). This will allow an existing office use to expand onto the adjacent residential lot.

Why it matters

The rezoning indicates an intent to expand or renovate the existing office building, likely involving interior and exterior construction, demolition, and site work on the newly incorporated parcel. This expansion could include various trades from general contracting to landscaping.

Timing

This was a first reading approval. Subsequent readings will be required before the rezoning is final. Design and permitting would follow the final rezoning.
