Summary

A request to rezone parcels near Galleria Mall from retail to residential at 0 and 100 McKesson Parkway was tabled by the EAC so the scheduled public hearing can proceed; members raised concerns about downstream sewer capacity.

The Environmental Advisory Committee tabled a rezoning request for parcels at 0 and 100 McKesson Parkway, allowing a public hearing scheduled for Jan. 13 to proceed and inviting the applicant to return after the hearing.

The proposed zoning change would move parcels adjacent to the Galleria Mall from a commercial retail designation to an apartment zoning district. Committee members noted that the change could increase sewer loads compared with commercial use; one member said earlier capacity analysis work had been started but not completed for the project. The committee agreed to wait for the public-hearing record and additional data before making a recommendation.

The item was tabled by motion and second so the town board can receive the public-hearing record and the applicant can respond to capacity questions before the EAC issues a recommendation.

Next steps: the public hearing will proceed on Jan. 13; the applicant was encouraged to appear at the end of the month to present updated information.
