Commission approves several Highway 16 parcels from R-2 to R-1 at owners— request
Summary
Property owners along Highway 16 requested R-2-to-R-1 rezones on multiple parcels; planning staff recommended approval and commissioners voted to approve each parcel separately.
Property owners along Highway 16 asked the Zoning Commission to change multiple parcels from R-2 to R-1 (more restrictive residential zoning). The requests were presented as separate agenda items for parcels including 0289629, 0116509Y, and related parcel numbers.
Danny Adele said portions of his property fronting Highway 16 had been classified R-2 even though he lives in France Settlement and uses the land for cattle; he asked for R-1. Planning staff recommended approval, noting that the change would impose stricter requirements and fit adjacent lot sizes. Commissioners observed the parcels did not cross municipal incorporation lines and confirmed no public-safety or infrastructure conflicts were evident at the hearing.
The commission approved each parcel—s request in separate motions and votes; all voting commissioners present recorded yes. The approvals will be transmitted as recommendations to the parish council for final action.
