The Council Bluffs City Council on Tuesday approved several land-use measures, including three rezoning ordinances, final- and preliminary-plat approvals for two subdivisions and a 124‑unit extended‑stay hotel planned commercial development.

The measures included Ordinance 66‑49 (rezoning a portion of Section 34 from A‑2 Parks, Estates and Agricultural to R‑1E Single‑Family Residential Estates for property at 1305 State Orchard Road), Ordinance 66‑50 and Ordinance 66‑51 (rezonings to I‑1 Light Industrial for land near 2025 Hunt Avenue), Resolution 25‑1‑162 (final plat approval and a variance for Tweedie’s Landing, a two‑lot residential estate subdivision at 1305 State Orchard Road), Resolutions 25‑1‑169 and 25‑1‑170 (preliminary plat approval and PR plan amendment for a 17‑lot Arbor Creek Second Addition south of 1020 Railroad Avenue) and a planned commercial development plan for a 124‑unit extended‑stay hotel (Resolution 25‑1‑171).

Council members moved and seconded each measure and approved them by voice vote; the meeting record shows roll calls were taken by voice with members responding “Aye.” No written protests were reported on the rezoning items in the council packet.

Developer and applicant representatives were present for some items. “My name is Michael. I’m one of the owners of these two parcels... I’m here to answer any questions you might have,” said Michael, the property owner who spoke when the Hunt Avenue rezonings were considered. Andrew, the project civil engineer for the hotel, attended to answer technical questions.

During public comment on the Arbor Creek rezoning, longtime neighborhood resident Ron Wolf of 536 College Road said the neighborhood now largely supports the developer’s plan but urged the city to address longstanding pavement and drainage problems on College Road. “College Road... is still terrible,” Wolf said, and added that heavy truck traffic contributes to deterioration.

Council staff and planners did not report any unresolved protests or conditions on the items as presented. Several motions also included waivers of third readings where applicable and the council granted those waivers by voice vote.

Less critical items that were approved in the same session included routine right‑of‑way vacations and minor zoning code updates.

The council did not adopt any new conditions on the approved plats at the time of the votes; staff indicated future engineering, stormwater and right‑of‑way requirements will be handled through standard permitting and final plat processes.
