Commission approves first reading, plat for RLN Business Park Third Edition
Summary
The commission approved first reading of a rezoning ordinance and the plat for RLN Business Park Third Edition, moving lots to limited industrial and designating Lot 3 as public and institutional; staff included an airport‑proximity agreement and reserved a street/utility easement.
The Fargo City Commission approved first reading of the rezoning ordinance and plat for the RLN Business Park Third Edition, a primarily industrial subdivision north of the airport, after a staff presentation and a brief applicant Q&A.
Donald Kress of the Department of Planning and Development described the proposed change: Lots 1 and 2 would be zoned limited industrial and Lot 3 public and institutional. The plat includes a dedication to the Southeast Cass Water Resource District, a vacation of 46th Avenue North right‑of‑way under North Dakota Code, and an airport proximity agreement required for properties near airport lagoons.
Kress said staff do not currently expect to require re‑establishing the vacated 46th Avenue alignment but recommended reserving a street and utility easement so the road could be rebuilt if needed. Ryan Wolland of Lowry Engineering, representing the applicant, said the primary proposed building is likely a paint facility and that the location of a pond on Lot 1 had not yet been decided.
A motion to approve the recommendation from staff was moved and seconded and passed by roll call.
Next steps: the rezoning proceeds as a first reading; further readings and any required easement or agreement recordings will proceed consistent with city code and the staff report.
