Developer seeks commercial zoning for 1.1‑acre Pincher Street parcel; community suggests small grocery
Summary
An applicant requested downzoning from heavy industrial (M‑2) to C‑2 for a 1.1‑acre Pincher Street lot; no specific use was proposed. Residents suggested retail or a specialty grocery as desirable uses; staff encouraged the applicant to align final uses with the city's use table.
Myisha Rashad represented an applicant seeking to rezone a 1.1‑acre parcel on Pincher Street from heavy industrial (M‑2) to commercial (C‑2). At the meeting Rashad said the applicant does not yet have a finalized use and plans to engage the community and the council member before returning with a site plan.
Residents asked about parcel size and possible uses. Alexis suggested a specialty grocery and named examples of neighborhood retail options that residents said they lack. The applicant and staff cautioned that the lot is small and site design will be constrained; staff urged the applicant to consult the use table and coordinate with public works on infrastructure and compliance requirements.
No decision was made; the applicant scheduled a public participation meeting and will return with a site plan if community feedback and site constraints point to a specific commercial use.
