Summary

Council approved the first reading of Ordinance 25010 to change the zoning of the Watson property on Villa Road from (residential) to M-2 heavy industrial following a planning commission recommendation.

Bolivar City Council approved the first reading of Ordinance 25 0 10 to rezone the Watson property on Villa Road to M-2 heavy industrial, a change the planning commission recommended for industrial recruitment.

The ordinance would amend the city’s zoning map to change the parcel’s designation from a residential classification to M-2 heavy industrial. The council noted the rezoning is intended to support industrial recruitment and economic development for the parcel annexed for industrial use.

Council member Williams moved to approve the first reading and Council member Woods seconded; the motion carried. The council did not read a public-comment record into the official minutes during the vote and no roll-call tally was given at the time of approval. The planning commission’s recommendation was cited as the basis for the rezoning action.

No implementation timeline, prospective tenants, or site-specific development plans were presented during the first-reading action; additional hearings or administrative steps may follow under local zoning procedures.
