Summary

The Madison City Commission approved first reading of Ordinance 1679 to change zoning for the new City Hall property, including the pond to the west, from single-family residential to heavy manufacturing; staff said the change aligns with adjacent parcels and the Planning Commission recommended approval.

The Madison City Commission approved the first reading of Ordinance 1679 to change zoning for the city’s new City Hall property and the adjacent pond from 90 single-family residential to heavy manufacturing.

Jamieson, a city staff member, told commissioners, “This is only change affects the property that we're sitting on currently. This is for our new City Hall property and includes the pond to the west,” and said staff believe heavy manufacturing “is the most appropriate district as it matches some of the zoning on adjacent properties surrounding us.” Jamieson also noted the Planning Commission unanimously recommended the rezoning.

Commissioners moved and seconded the first-reading approval and the motion carried. The action is recorded as the first reading of Ordinance 1679 amending Appendix B, zoning section 17 o 2; the transcript does not record a roll-call vote or individual vote tally for this item.

The ordinance’s first-reading approval advances the rezoning but does not, by itself, finalize a permanent zoning change; additional readings or follow-up steps required for final adoption were not specified in the discussion.

The commission discussed the item during the new-business portion of the meeting and did not record public comment on the rezoning.
