The Socorro City Council on Oct. 6 approved a rezoning of two vacant lots at 10800 and 10808 Stacy Drive from R‑1 (single‑family residential) to R‑2 (medium‑density residential) to permit duplex development.

Planning staff reported that the properties are vacant and the future land‑use designation is suburban residential.

Council approved the second reading and adoption of the rezoning ordinance. Staff said development will follow site‑plan and building permit reviews as required by city code.
