Developers and their representatives told the council the project aligns with the city master plan for industrial use in the Irvington area and described mitigation measures for dust, noise and screening.

Brent Beller, representing the applicant, said the city's master plan had earmarked the area for industrial uses and described the development as 20 lots with most planned as GI and two larger parcels (identified as Lot 16 and Lot 19) zoned HI. Beller said the special-use permit for Lot 18 would allow a single user to perform aggregate recycling — grinding old concrete into base material — and described on-site controls including high-powered watering systems, screening and street sweeping to reduce particulates. He said noise is expected to reach about 65 to 70 decibels at peak, below the city's referenced sound standard of about 80 decibels under the cited sound ordinance.

Beller also noted prior neighborhood outreach and said grading has started; Planning Board and Planning Department recommended approval. The council approved the motions by voice and roll call: Councilmember Begley — yes; Councilmember Hugg — yes; Councilmember Johnson — yes; Councilmember Roe — yes; President Harding — yes. Motion passed 5 to 0.

The developer representatives on the record included Brent Beller and co-developers Tim McGill and Jesse Calabrio; Caleb Beasley with ENA also participated. The special-use permit was limited in scope in testimony to aggregate recycling as described by the applicant. The council's approval covers rezoning, final plat, the limited special-use permit for Lot 18 and the subdivision agreement; subsequent site-level permits and compliance checks remain necessary.","The Omaha City Council approved rezoning, final plat and a special-use permit for McGill Industrial Park, allowing limited scrap and salvage aggregate recycling on Lot 18 and rezoning portions to GI and HI consistent with the city's master plan; council voted 5-0.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6548061,"Council approves preliminary plat for Southside Terrace Phase 3, including 87 affordable units",116,959000,1075000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3409404-e04bc3bac0c7f6a3102579f54026d99f&start=959&end=1075","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3409404-e04bc3bac0c7f6a3102579f54026d99f/thumbnail_959000.jpg","/articles/6548061/Omaha/Douglas-County/Nebraska/Council-approves-preliminary-plat-for-Southside-Terrace-Phase-3-including-87-affordable-units","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6548061-dfd2c805e45f00bbc87807612c8d71b0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771185434&Signature=hM0PRIZiEklFcV9qFZUa63rHhB1NNsakdod9IRyVYqOCqSplsJHkIsI5JRpTsQwII9pio-kXhBoywh2-mtHPZeNtJdGD~LwybY84o8kx4z4yYga9ioarVeKHpYwdci-UWZeVxi2O~p4FWA~X677VPjkVB3vIQqae-fNGdqxjt2dhvJw5mei99oyt9dM8J-4zVltxXO8ocX2Dt-H9svLWQlWi2~EEheKVGC2sxbLOiZ40bCfe1VIk5RfVTThFWUuweBhDhhQwmxBxOIHIiUXOxgxyByNxDtPX2hDcXqUaH1uk0af21B0LOdzjZbOi0tEgB8gcbOU4ntmMuu5X4BGlZw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Omaha City Council voted 5-0 on 2025-05-13 to approve the preliminary plat for Southside Terrace Phase 3, a development in South Omaha that will create 113 residential units and a separate 42-unit senior building.

City approval clears the way for a mixed-phase project that project proponents said will increase the supply of affordable housing in a neighborhood targeted for reinvestment.

Brinshore Development representative Bill Ducash outlined the proposal to the council, saying the preliminary plat covers two developments: Southside Terrace Phase 3, a 113-unit development with units ranging from one to seven bedrooms, and Southside Terrace Senior, a 42-unit building of one- and two-bedroom homes. Ducash said 87 units in Phase 3 are designated affordable, and 55 of those will be supported by project-based vouchers provided by the Omaha Housing Authority. \"It's a great development. It furthers affordable housing in Omaha and just housing in general in Omaha,\" Ducash said.

Joanie Balk of the Omaha Housing Authority appeared for the applicant and offered to answer council questions. Planning staff and the Planning Board recommended approval of the preliminary plat.

Council action followed public hearings and the council approved the motion by roll call vote: Councilmember Begley — yes; Councilmember Hugg — yes; Councilmember Johnson — yes; Councilmember Roe — yes; President Harding — yes. The motion passed 5 to 0.

Details recorded by project representatives at the hearing: Southside Terrace Phase 3 will total 113 units with a mix of one- to seven-bedroom units; 87 units are designated affordable, 55 of those are planned to be assisted by project-based vouchers from the Omaha Housing Authority; the separate Southside Terrace Senior building will contain 42 units of one- and two-bedroom homes.

The approval is for the preliminary plat stage; subsequent permits and final plat actions will be required before construction begins.","The Omaha City Council voted 5-0 to approve the preliminary plat for Southside Terrace Phase 3, a development that will deliver 113 housing units — including 87 affordable units, 55 of which will be supported by project-based vouchers from the Omaha Housing Authority — plus a separate 42‑unit senior building.","actionData","errors"]
