Council adopts conditional rezoning for 1301 East Waterford Avenue despite applicant's absence
Summary
Council voted to adopt an ordinance conditionally rezoning 1301 East Waterford Avenue (tax key 5828017000) to M-1 with a special use for a contractor shop/yard; the applicant was absent and one member opposed voting without the applicant present.
The common council adopted an ordinance to conditionally rezone 1301 East Waterford Avenue (property identification number 5828017000) to M-1 Limited Industrial with a special use under section 455-29c of the city zoning code.
Notice of the public hearing and the proposed rezoning was read into the record at the start of the meeting. The public hearing itself drew no speakers and was closed. When the council moved to introduce and adopt the ordinance, one member objected to acting when the applicant was not present, saying, "I really do not like, passing these types of resolutions when the guy doesn't show up." The council proceeded; the motion to introduce and adopt was moved and seconded and the ordinance passed with one opposing vote.
The ordinance and the property’s tax key were read into the record during the meeting. The applicant notified the clerk earlier in the day that he would not attend because he was sick, according to the meeting record.
What happens next: The ordinance was adopted by the council; any conditions specified by staff or within the ordinance will be part of the city’s file on the rezoning.
