62.5-acre mixed-use PUD rezoning coming — 1100 W 5th N St
Up for review Oct 5
Every project links to the city packet it came from.
A request to rezone approximately 62.5 acres from Heavy Industrial to Planned Unit Development (PUD) for mixed residential and commercial uses was discussed by the Planning and Development Committee. The Planning Commission previously recommended approval, and the committee's action for this agenda item moves it closer to Town Council for a first reading.

- What happened
- The Planning and Development Committee reviewed a request to rezone 62.5 acres from Heavy Industrial to Planned Unit Development (PUD) for mixed residential and commercial uses. The Planning Commission had previously recommended approval of this rezoning, which will now proceed to Town Council for a first reading.
- Why it matters
- Rezoning to PUD for mixed residential and commercial uses on a 62.5-acre site indicates a large-scale development is planned. This will require extensive sitework, utility infrastructure (water, sewer, storm), and ultimately commercial and residential construction. Road network and stormwater plans have been submitted, implying significant civil work.
- Timing
- This item is on the Standing Committee agenda for October 5, 2026, which is a precursor to a Town Council meeting (October 8, 2026 agenda shows this as a first reading). If the first reading passes, subsequent readings and potential final approval will follow, after which detailed development plans would be submitted.
