Council approves rezoning to allow mobile-home park expansion on Highway 24
Summary
The council approved a first-reading rezoning request to convert a 2.29-acre tract on Highway 24 from General Business to a Two-Family/Apartment District to enable an extension of an adjacent mobile-home park; planning staff said the owner expects roughly 10–12 units pending civil engineering review.
The Commerce City Council on Sept. 16 authorized on first reading a zoning change requested by Joyfulness Property Holdings LLC to rezone a 2.29-acre parcel along Highway 24 from General Business to a two-apartment-dwelling district (R-2) to allow an expansion of an adjacent mobile-home park.
Why it matters: The owner of the adjoining mobile-home park seeks to expand the park northward into the triangular parcel. Planning and Zoning recommended approval after considering the location and the owner's intent; council asked questions about site layout and engineering.
Details: Community Development Director Harter said P&Z heard the case on Sept. 10 and recommended approval; he noted the property owner owns the adjacent mobile-home park and estimated the area might ultimately accommodate about 10 to 12 additional units, though he emphasized final capacity depends on civil engineering and site design. The rezoning does not itself approve specific units or infrastructure; those will require subsequent site design, permitting, and utility connections.
Outcome and next steps: The council approved the rezoning on first reading and will return the item for second reading. City staff said civil engineering and utility planning will determine how many units can be placed and what infrastructure improvements will be required.
