Applicant Ron Glockner told the commission his family historically operated short-term rentals on the site and that rezoning would allow him to return the property to that use and provide rental income in retirement. He said he would not be advertising RV hookups or commercial RV camping and that, if short-term rental permits are sought, the owner must still submit the parish’s short-term rental application and supporting documents.

Neighbors opposed the rezoning at the mic and in card submissions. They raised concerns about traffic, storm vulnerability (the property floods in some wind/storm conditions), and longstanding activity on the property involving RVs. Glockner said he sometimes moves boats, trailers and an RV to the parcel during storms and that he intends to comply with parish requirements if he proceeds. Staff clarified that GC-2 zoning would allow a future application for a short-term rental but would not automatically grant one; separate permitting is required.

Commissioners cited the property’s waterfront location and the potential for modest recreational/commercial uses and approved the rezoning by motion; the vote was recorded as carried.","Commissioners rezoned a half-acre Lake Road parcel from PF-2 to GC-2, which staff said would allow the owner to apply for short-term rental status and permits for small marina uses; neighbors raised concerns about RVs and rentals but the applicant said no RV hookups are planned.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6071690,"Commissioners deny manufactured-housing overlay in Lacombe after neighbors cite flooding and property-value concerns",1310,3889000,5199000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e&start=3889&end=5199","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e/thumbnail_3889000.jpg","/articles/6071690/Louisiana/Commissioners-deny-manufactured-housing-overlay-in-Lacombe-after-neighbors-cite-flooding-and-property-value-concerns","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6071690-9b67e424bf06b4009b0fa0f960f9b024/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440360&Signature=g5VLgMCASNmqrkscjtSRS7W4B4QTjUYYJju3ACahn69MtHbNVzUPjtfvnEPvgMS73qvoKDu8oHrN9KfX-9yIdkh1tNWq0B-cS6QtXTXCij4~xDKc0KqrWUvMgKKNAzD6t8naF3UYMPPXbaGZPjyClrEFTSe6NUeRYZSsNyJUApA9V~4KeUIXljOGHQPVOJAEqaxENcB~jsSxz1fJuXmmvX3B3XBYnUSl8sKjU58fSwMZUlkLsrdbKgJISfEN1eQPZMOjyM9WkFTbprTzmzm36g2x~8gTB17dK0jPol3uEYmiKMnT~0s9ebibcvCj1x2GDdTIjD-M5muZ5rSx6nunaA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Planning Commission voted to deny a request to place a manufactured housing overlay (MHO) on a 0.5-acre parcel on Lake Road in Lacombe, following extensive public opposition and concerns about flooding and neighborhood character.

Petitioner Ron Glockner (senior) asked to rezone a half-acre from R-2 rural residential to allow a manufactured home. Glockner said he and his wife intend to use a manufactured home on the parcel and that the site features mature trees they wanted to preserve. He said a FEMA map showed the property’s elevation was near the flood zone boundary and that he had obtained a 911 address for the lot.

Opponents — including Karen Beard, a registered geriatric nurse and adjacent property owner — described past drainage problems they attribute to unauthorized fill and other work they said had been performed on nearby properties. Beard and others asked that, if rezoning occurred, the parish place specifications on retaining water on-site, require a retention pond and ensure no net fill onto adjacent properties. Several speakers and a Lacombe Harbor homeowners association representative said the area’s property values and recreational gateway character (access to Big Branch National Wildlife Refuge and the Trace) would be harmed by additional manufactured homes on Lake Road.

Commissioner Narcisse moved to deny the MHO request; Commissioner Arcimoto seconded. Commissioners cited high neighborhood opposition and concerns that the proposed use was out of character with the front-facing Lake Road corridor. Staff noted that the parcel lies within the parish’s resiliency overlay and that elevation and no-net-fill rules would apply if development were pursued.

The motion to deny carried.","A request by Ron Glockner to add a manufactured housing overlay (MHO) to a 0.5-acre Lacombe parcel to allow a mobile home was denied after multiple neighbors complained about past drainage problems, alleged fills on church property, and potential impacts to property values and protected natural areas.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6071691,"Commissioners approve major PUD amendment at Bideco Creek to replace planned commercial acreage with up to 35 single-family lots",859,6437000,7296000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e&start=6437&end=7296","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e/thumbnail_6437000.jpg","/articles/6071691/Louisiana/Commissioners-approve-major-PUD-amendment-at-Bideco-Creek-to-replace-planned-commercial-acreage-with-up-to-35-single-family-lots","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6071691-0470e0d53b35e974cb8d8f9174403a09/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440360&Signature=l9aI5IKurUUk4SZJ9t1w818HF-m-ayUgMGX4kwCBmo-zZ9gDdGEo4VL0o6lhFghdj8FInDUm0V5IFmP7ZHCsijwxTy0DjglyYLdDVCP43BZI2zXX4K4fILcy4jJBM1IwmfaR1p4HkGQHQeCI6XP1LzSE0eWCNauuXvN6wXJ2-ynTFTX2ehH6noIeiPMLOBy0bEi6aFtqrTKiU5xqEojjRQweYdrzvgLG66ZaTfNfGzYaw-1YHv1TVtJHNWKsDdaF3D2b34D4WJPGXh8z19pWqR4S9j4S~rJPFZzRMQVu9j4JbDpO~RfuNOjgnv4Rl35DX0qpyqEtzHK22EKWPKObng__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Planning Commission approved a major amendment to the Bideco Creek planned unit development to remove previously approved commercial and office uses from an 8.9-acre parcel and replace them with single-family residential development capped at 35 homes.

Paul Marone, representing the developer, told commissioners the original 1997 PUD had reserved 5.9 acres for garden offices and 3 acres for commercial uses. The amendment reduces the development footprint to 7.16 acres, moves the building footprint away from Bideco Creek, and increases the subdivision’s total green space from 546 to 554 acres. Marone said a majority of the neighborhood’s 379 responding residents favored residential reuse rather than commercial development.

Resident Rachel Catalanado, speaking for neighbors, said the request aligns with the 2040 plan and noted support from many Bideco Creek homeowners; she did note drainage concerns that would be addressed during the engineering and permit phases.

Commissioners said the residential proposal is likely to generate less traffic than a full commercial build-out and would be accessed from inside the gated community. The amendment passed on a motion by Commissioner Seager with a second from Commissioner Arcemont.","The commission approved an amendment converting an 8.9-acre commercial parcel in the Bideco Creek PUD into a 7.16-acre single-family residential parcel with a cap of 35 lots, increasing green space and moving development away from the creek.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6071693,"Commissioners postpone Pen Mill Road rezoning after residents raise drainage and traffic concerns",1739,662000,2401000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e&start=662&end=2401","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3035698-fc0e2f5373587e84296475e493d3301e/thumbnail_662000.jpg","/articles/6071693/Louisiana/Commissioners-postpone-Pen-Mill-Road-rezoning-after-residents-raise-drainage-and-traffic-concerns","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6071693-463c5da727487aa917873f02257c6244/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440360&Signature=MEVU5Exnuz56W7tg5-bXLQeeouN0ae5v0WUAg-HWtIe4xZfmoB99VCUz-82kUmlcVf-KhpkHkdDTZ5XjNeEoupJ8UejlI0w8HxoCb1PFjyRKthdVu4ml1Kh0TE9KhHqfUSu9u8eeE-LEOdp~cwgJp9XjLZGEA6YhDI-hE1Kre-hPQl2lmxW5TdPANKgglPFWch~DQkcK-G~6V1IxqWQF1vD1JyUX4P3EccjJrDebcLWPo0pAd0aTyfIqd6oC5z1np66uipuMVI5IhKq34~z9aVmKxulC-m9vCvEiHntMoKobZKA9KiUAo~g54q7EtTCY~Ho8XU90ZQ5YDtmbem0hJQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The St. Tammany Parish Planning Commission on motion postponed a rezoning request for 30.86 acres on the north side of Pen Mill Road in Council District 3 to the next monthly meeting, after prolonged discussion and public comment about drainage, traffic and neighborhood connectivity.

The petitioner, represented by attorney Paul Marone, asked to rezone the property from R-1 rural residential with a rural overlay to S-2 suburban residential to allow a single-family subdivision. Marone said the S-2 district carries a roughly 7,500-square-foot lot standard and that preliminary engineering indicates the site will require “at least 4 acres of ponds.” He also told the commission the petitioner is prepared to pay for any required turn-lane improvements and central utilities if the project proceeds.

The Covington Vincent Airport Pilots Association, represented by Dan Oppenheim, told the commission it had negotiated several protections with the developer including a 60-foot no-cut buffer along the runway, a wooden fence to keep residents off airport property, and covenant language warning buyers that airplane noise is normal. Oppenheim said the airport would contribute $2,020,000 toward the fence’s construction and would allow limited access to the airport property for fence construction.

More than a half dozen Simpson Farms residents spoke in opposition or submitted cards without speaking. Speakers including Lloyd Thomas and Mitzi Mancuso said their primary concern was drainage: they said water already collects in retention ponds in Simpson Farms and feared additional runoff would overload local drainage. Several speakers also said they opposed a vehicular connection between the new subdivision and Simpson Farms. Marone said the developer had offered a connection but would not build one if Simpson Farms’ board opposed it.

Commissioners repeatedly noted that zoning decisions are separate from later engineering and subdivision approvals. Commissioner Martino said the S-2 request is consistent with nearby lots and noted the applicant had described measures to meet Unified Development Code and 2040 plan requirements, but he also voiced sympathy for residents’ concerns. Commissioner Arcemont moved to postpone the item for one month to allow additional community meetings; the motion carried.

The postponement means the applicant is expected to return next month, with the commission directing the council representative to organize a community meeting so neighbors can review drainage and traffic analyses in advance of a final vote.

The applicant and airport representatives indicated on the record that drainage, a traffic impact analysis and any required utility upgrades would be performed at the planning stage and at the applicant’s cost.","The Planning Commission postponed a request to rezone 30.86 acres on Pen Mill Road from rural residential to S-2 suburban residential after residents pressed for more study of drainage, traffic and neighborhood impacts; developer and airport representatives described mitigation steps.","actionData","errors"]
