Summary

The council set Feb. 24, 2026 public hearings to consider a rezoning request for property at 501 Huffman Road and proposed text amendments to the city's zoning ordinance (Ordinance No. 15-13033), including changes to height limits and permitted uses in certain districts.

The council voted to set two public hearings for Feb. 24, 2026. Item 63 concerns a rezoning application for property at 501 Huffman Road (owner: Prince Realty Brokers LLC; applicant: BHM Log Group LLC / Brandon Prince). The clerk read legal description and location details for the property and the council set the hearing for public input.

Item 64 directs a public hearing on proposed text amendments to the city's zoning ordinance (Ordinance No. 15-13033 as amended). The recommended changes described in the clerk's reading included amendments to height requirements in the D5 multifamily district (setting a 35‑foot standard for all uses), adding single‑family detached residential as a permitted use in an MU‑M district, and clarifying definitions and special exceptions for sanitary landfills in certain industrial districts.

What happens next: both items are scheduled for public hearings on Feb. 24, 2026; residents and stakeholders will have an opportunity to comment at those hearings before any final ordinance vote.
