Supervisors adopt rezoning for Schneck Law property near Mendon on second consideration
Summary
The board adopted the second consideration and final reading of Ordinance 2025‑2 to rezone approximately 2.8 acres in Mendon Township from A2 agricultural production to R2 urban transitional district; applicants may pursue a conditional‑use permit next.
On second consideration the Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors voted to amend the official zoning map by approving Ordinance 2025‑2, rezoning roughly 2.8 acres owned by the Schneck Law property in Mendon Township from A2 agricultural production to R2 urban transitional.
County staff said the property is at 29425/300 Tenth Street (address read into the record) and that the rezoning had been the subject of a prior public hearing where there were no public comments. The planner noted the applicant’s hope is to pursue a conditional‑use permit in the future to allow development consistent with the R2 district; the conditional‑use permit would be considered separately by the zoning board.
The board moved and seconded adoption of the ordinance on second consideration; a roll call was requested and recorded with unanimous “aye” votes.
Why it matters: The rezoning changes the allowable uses for the parcel from a primarily agricultural classification toward a transitional urban designation, which can allow different residential or conditional commercial uses subject to subsequent permits.
What’s next: The applicant may apply for a conditional‑use permit or other county permits as allowed under the new R2 zoning; zoning board procedures and permit reviews would apply.
Ending: The board adopted the ordinance on second consideration by unanimous vote and closed the matter for this action.
