rezoning
Changing land-use labels so properties can be used for new homes or businesses
Watch for follow-up actions tied to the former Hamilton property, including environmental review steps mentioned in Plan Commission discussion and any redevelopment or property acquisition decisions.
Typically discussed at City Council. Check back when the next agenda is published.
The former Hamilton property (Parcel 053-000-052-030.05) is now zoned for business use instead of industrial after an 8-0 Council vote. It’s a paper change that expands what can be allowed there, while the bigger real-world questions—cleanup steps and what actually gets built—sit outside the zoning vote. No one spoke at the public hearing.
