The Broussard City Council introduced Ordinance 25-829 on May 27 to rezone portions of Garber Road (Map F6) from light industrial to single-family residential; the zoning commission recommended approval.

The mayor said the zoning map is included in the council packet and that the request came from the property owner. Planning staff (Walter) confirmed the zoning commission forwarded a recommendation to approve the rezoning.

Why it matters: Rezoning will change allowable uses on the affected parcels from industrial-type uses to single-family residential, affecting future development options and neighborhood character.

Details:
- The council introduced the ordinance for first reading; no public comment was made at the introduction.
- Walter noted the zoning commission had reviewed and recommended the rezoning.

Discussion vs. decision: Introduction of the ordinance is a procedural step; the council did not adopt the ordinance at this meeting. The council approved introduction by voice vote and will consider final adoption in a later meeting where public comment may be allowed.

Next steps: The ordinance will proceed through the statutory notice and hearing process for final adoption at a future council meeting.
