The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of a comprehensive plan map amendment to change eight parcels near East Florida and East Iowa avenues from medium‑density residential to industrial. Christy Watkins, principal planner, said several parcels already contain industrial activity (seed company, landscaping business) and that the amendment would align the future land use designation with existing uses and correct inconsistencies in the map.
Watkins noted that four Florida‑address parcels are already within city limits and zoned IL (light industrial) while the Iowa parcels lie in unincorporated Canyon County and face county code‑compliance questions stemming from an existing landscaping business. Staff said the properties have access to city water and that the fire department provided standard comments about access and water supply.
There was no public opposition at the Planning and Zoning hearing. Commissioner Daffer moved and Commissioner Kirkman seconded the motion to recommend approval; the motion passed on a roll‑call vote. The item will advance to City Council for final action.
