Police Jury approves rezoning for North Perkins Ferry Road with 8‑foot privacy fence condition
Summary
The jury approved rezoning of the 1100 block of North Perkins Ferry Road from single‑family residential to general commercial, adopting planning board conditions and adding a requirement for an 8‑foot wooden privacy fence on the north and east property lines.
The Calcasieu Parish Police Jury voted Dec. 19 to rezone the 1100 block of North Perkins Ferry Road in Ward 1 from single‑family residential to general commercial to allow commercial development, subject to planning‑board conditions and an added condition requiring an 8‑foot wooden privacy fence on the north and east property lines.
Juror Quinn moved approval with the planning and zoning board recommendations and explicitly added the 8‑foot fence requirement; the motion was seconded and carried without further recorded objections. During discussion staff explained the fence/separation was a negotiated measure between parties and had not previously been entered into the rule text, which the jury elected to formalize as a condition.
The rezoning was approved as presented; the transcript records the motion carried but does not include a roll‑call tally. The decision authorizes commercial development subject to the stated conditions and any standard permitting processes.
