The Planning and Zoning Commission on Aug. 4 approved a letter of recommendation reflecting its earlier favorable action to rezone a roughly 6‑acre parcel at 815 Strecker Road (Ward 3) from Non‑Urban Residence (NDU) to R‑1 (one‑acre residential) to allow a two‑lot subdivision. Planning staff said a required right‑of‑way dedication to Strecker Road reduced the site from 6.0 acres to approximately 5.86 acres, enabling the proposed two lots — one roughly 3 acres and the other about 2.86 acres — with one existing dwelling on the smaller lot.

The department described the rezoning as reasonable given the existing lot configuration and the dedication of land for road right‑of‑way; public works and planning staff requested the dedication to improve the Strecker Road profile. Commissioner Clayton moved to approve the letter as drafted; Commissioner Cone seconded. The commission approved the letter by roll call; votes recorded as yes by the commissioners and the mayor.

Why it matters: The action formalizes the commission’s support for a lot split that creates one additional single‑family building lot and secures a right‑of‑way dedication for Strecker Road.
