The City Planning Commission recommended City Council approve rezoning for 407 and 415 School Street to the Public Facilities and Utility Lands District to align the properties (including the Parks and Recreation center) with a pending amendment to the city’s future land-use map.

Planning staff said the left property (407) is already designated civic and institutional on the current future land-use map while 415 is designated medium‑density residential; a comprehensive-plan amendment to align both parcels as civic/institutional is pending before City Council. The rezoning application seeks to retitle both parcels from B-1 Neighborhood Business to the Public Facilities and Utility Lands District so the merged parcel and expansion of the recreation center can proceed.

No members of the public testified in favor or opposition at the hearing. Planning staff recommended that approval of the rezoning be contingent upon City Council approval of the future-land-use map amendment. The commission voted to recommend the ordinance (06‑20‑25) to Council.

Next steps: Council consideration; if council approves the comprehensive-plan amendment and ordinance, staff said the merger and rec-center expansion can proceed subject to required permits.
