Council approves PENCO rezoning for parcel on West Don Highway
Summary
Seaford council unanimously approved PENCO Corporation’s minor subdivision and rezoning request to convert part of Tax Map Parcel 531‑12‑45/45.01 from C‑2 to M‑1 to align proposed lot lines and support future business uses.
The Seaford City Council voted unanimously April 28 to approve PENCO Corporation’s request to reconfigure a parcel on West Don Highway and rezone a portion from C‑2 (Highway Commercial) to M‑1 (Light Industrial).
City manager described the application during the public hearing, saying the request would realign lot lines so that Elegant Designs would remain in a C‑2 lot while the remainder would become M‑1. Ray Lardner, the designer for the project, was present to answer technical questions. Planning & Zoning recommended approval at its April 2 meeting and council considered the commission’s findings of fact before acting.
Councilwoman Grasset moved to approve PENCO’s rezoning request; Councilman Bradley seconded. In roll-call votes Councilwoman Grasset, Vice Mayor Henderson, Councilman Bradley and Councilman Quillen each voted yes based on the findings of fact and the motion passed unanimously.
Why it matters: The rezoning changes the allowable land uses on the parcel and aligns zoning boundaries with proposed lot lines, which may allow light‑industrial uses on part of the property in the future. The parcel was described in the record as Tax Map Parcel 531‑12‑45 and the new lot being 531‑12‑45.01.
Next steps: The council approved the binding findings of fact and the filing for the rezoning may proceed according to the city’s land‑use procedures. No conditions or amendments were recorded in the council action.
