The council introduced Zoning Amendment No. 29 to rezone roughly 57 acres at 580 Old Colony Road to General Planned Development; a public hearing is scheduled for 03/03/2026.
The City of Tuscaloosa introduced Zoning Amendment No. 29 during the meeting, a proposal to annex and rezone approximately 57 acres at 580 Old Colony Road to General Planned Development (GPD).
Mr. Holmes told the council, "And, tonight, you will be introducing zoning amendment number 29, approx rezoning approximately 57 acres being annexed in the city of Tuscaloosa located at, 580 Old Colony Road." The council set March 3, 2026, as the date for a public hearing on whether to adopt the zoning change.
A councilmember asked for clarification on the GPD terminology. As one member explained: "That is, general planned development... now they are general plant developments or GPDs."
