May 13, 2026

The county-initiated rezoning to Public Lands & Institutions (PLI) for the Rosenwald property was adopted on first reading to enable a public park and a 6,000-square-foot community center; the board scheduled a required second hearing.

The full story

Annie Silaway, principal planner, presented a county-initiated rezoning to change approximately 12.98 acres formerly occupied by the Rosenwald School to PLI (Public Lands & Institutions) to allow development of a park and a 6,000-square-foot community center. Silaway said the site’s public/quasi-public future land use supported the rezoning and that the Planning & Zoning Commission recommended unanimous approval.
