The Glendale City Council approved a zoning-map amendment request by Scott and Bridget Fransen for 812 South Bend Street, rezoning parcel 2210135300 from heavy industrial to medium-density residential.

Council discussion noted that the area historically had industrial designations linked to railroad-era uses and coal storage, and that the current surrounding land uses were consistent with medium-density residential. The council voted in favor of the map amendment (zoning calendar item 25A-04/25C-0339) and subsequently approved a first-reading ordinance amending the zoning map for the parcel and waiving the second reading (item 25C-0340).

Nut graf: The change aligns the parcel’s zoning with neighboring residential uses and reflects a reversal of legacy heavy-industrial mapping tied to historic railroad operations.

Action: A motion to approve the map amendment for parcel 2210135300 carried on roll call, and the council later approved the first-reading ordinance and waived a second reading; both votes were recorded as carried.

Ending: Staff will proceed with implementing the map amendment consistent with the ordinance; additional administrative steps (e.g., updated zoning maps and notifications) will follow normal planning department procedures.
