Service committee advances two zoning changes for properties on South 3rd Street and Day Avenue
Summary
The Newark City Council service committee approved two zoning-change ordinances (25-41 and 25-42) affecting 165 South 3rd Street and parcels at 200 Day Avenue. Both measures passed the committee on voice votes and will be forwarded to the full council.
The Newark City Council’s service committee on December 12 approved two zoning-change ordinances and forwarded both to the full council.
Ordinance 25-41 would reclassify property at 165 South 3rd Street from LB (limited-intensity business) to TFR (two-family residence) to allow the property owner to construct a two-family dwelling. Committee members recorded no objections during the committee discussion and the item passed on a voice vote, recorded in the transcript as 5–0.
Ordinance 25-42 would rezone two parcels at 200 Day Avenue (noted in the meeting as recently acquired by the owner of Dom and Sue’s Pizza) from single-family residential to HP (high-intensity business) to match adjacent commercial zoning. Committee members asked no recorded questions and the ordinance likewise passed the committee on a voice vote, recorded as 5–0.
Clerk’s announcements at the meeting also noted that two ordinances listed as 25-43 and 25-44 were pulled from the agenda and were not considered.
No formal conditions, amendments or recorded abstentions were entered on either ordinance during the service-committee consideration. Both ordinances will appear on a future full-council agenda for final action.
