Commission approves rezoning at Clark Avenue to add four rental units
Summary
The planning commission approved rezoning 603 and 605 Clark from C1 commercial to R2 multifamily to allow two duplexes (four rental units) on a currently vacant lot; staff said utilities can be provided and commissioners framed the change as supportive of housing goals.
The Goodland Planning Commission voted to rezone two parcels on Clark Avenue (to be addressed 603 and 605 Clark) from C1 commercial to R2 multifamily to allow two duplex structures totaling four dwelling units.
Staff argued the site is a good transition from commercial to single‑family residential and noted sewer and electrical service can be provided; water will require a bore under Clark Avenue but is feasible. Commissioners described the change as consistent with the comprehensive plan and welcomed the addition of rental housing in the location, calling it an improvement over long‑standing vacant open storage. Commissioner Matt moved and Commissioner Curtis seconded the rezoning motion; commissioners approved it by voice vote.
Staff noted the developer will keep the property as a single rental property (four units) rather than subdividing each duplex for sale, which avoids automatic sprinkler requirements that trigger for certain multifamily thresholds.
Next steps: staff will coordinate addressing and utility hookups; the rezoning now moves toward any required building permits and site‑plan review.
