Shelbyville council approves rezoning of East Depot parcel, denies larger Trollinger rezoning
Summary
At its Nov. 13 meeting the Shelbyville City Council approved rezoning of a 1.08-acre parcel at 804 East Depot Street from R3 to C2 and rejected a separate request to rezone about 57.8 acres on Richdale Lane after the planning commission issued an unfavorable recommendation.
The Shelbyville City Council on Nov. 13 approved an ordinance rezoning a 1.08-acre parcel at 804 East Depot Street from R3 (medium-density residential) to C2 (general business) and voted to deny a separate request to rezone roughly 57.8 acres on Richdale Lane.
City Attorney Ginger Schauchner read the ordinance caption for the East Depot parcel during the council’s public hearings. No members of the public spoke for or against the East Depot rezoning; the council then moved, seconded and approved the amendment in a roll-call vote with all members recorded as voting yes.
On the larger Trollinger trust parcel on Richdale Lane, the planning commission had issued an unfavorable recommendation. After the first-reading ordinance was read, a councilmember moved to deny the rezoning request; the motion was seconded and carried in a roll-call vote. Council discussion earlier in the meeting referenced traffic and other concerns on Fairfield Pike as part of the council’s rationale for denying larger-scale residential rezonings.
What happens next: the East Depot rezoning becomes part of the city zoning map as amended; the Trollinger rezoning request was rejected at first reading and will not move forward as presented unless resubmitted. The council’s official minutes record the votes and will serve as the procedural record for both actions.
Votes and formal actions referenced in this article are recorded by the city clerk in the council’s roll-call and minutes for Nov.13.
