Summary

Council extended a temporary ordinance affecting gas-station uses on Tower Terrace Road and staff provided a timeline that would bring a new code language through Planning & Zoning and City Council by September.

The Marion City Council on Thursday approved Resolution No. 32439 to extend a temporary ordinance (No. 20326) with respect to Section 3.82, which limits gas-station uses on Tower Terrace Road. The extension preserves the temporary restriction while staff and Planning & Zoning draft permanent code language.

A council member asked how long the extension would remain in place. City staff (Nicole) explained the Planning and Zoning Commission discussed the matter on June 10 and will review draft code language at its July 8 meeting. The council will consider setting a public hearing at its second meeting in July for the first meeting in August; staff estimated the process — public hearing plus three readings — should conclude in September.

Council approved the resolution to extend the temporary ordinance; the meeting record shows the motion passed on an affirmative voice vote.

Ending: Staff will return draft language to the Planning & Zoning Commission on July 8 and then to council for public hearing and readings, with the city estimating final action in September.
