Council amends future land use and rezones 609 E. Ocmulgee from commercial to single-family
Summary
The council approved a future land-use amendment and rezoned 609 East Ocmulgee Street from C-1 local commercial to R-1 single-family to reflect adjacent residential uses; staff said the property sits next to former commercial buildings now used as homes.
The City Council approved a future land-use amendment for property at 609 East Ocmulgee Street and a companion ordinance rezoning the parcel from C-1 local commercial to R-1 single-family residential.
Planning staff said the building at 609 East Ocmulgee had been used for commercial purposes and was zoned C-1, but the surrounding area contains homes that had been grandfathered from earlier commercial zoning. Staff recommended the land-use amendment (Resolution No. 3046) because the parcel is now more consistent with adjacent residential properties.
Miss Sarah Winkle said the property sits next to a Domino’s and other mixed uses but recommended approval because the proposed change better fits the neighboring houses. A member of the public, John Metclerk, was present and available for questions but did not raise objections during the hearing.
Councilors closed the public hearing, moved and seconded the measures, and adopted both the land-use amendment and the rezoning ordinance (Ordinance No. 4270-A) by roll call.
