Commission approves rezoning to allow commercial tree service on former trucking site
Summary
A small commercial rezoning to permit a tree service on South 129th East Avenue was approved after the owner said the site had historically been used for trucking and small business.
The commission approved rezoning case Z7823 to change a roughly 2.12‑acre parcel north of the northwest corner of East 11th Street South and South 129th East Avenue from RS‑2 to Commercial General (CG) to permit a commercial tree service.
Planning staff said the property had a history of commercial use and that the land‑use plan designates the corridor as an employment district, supporting a shift to commercial zoning. Staff recommended approval.
Applicant Steven Anderson told the commission he purchased the property about nine years ago and said commercial uses — including Ollie’s trucking service — had occurred there since at least 1988. Anderson said code enforcement actions had created stress for his family and that he seeks authorization for a modest tree service business.
There were no public speakers. A commissioner moved and seconded approval as recommended by staff; the motion passed. The transcript does not record a roll‑call tally.
