Commission backs land‑use amendment and rezoning for property on West North River Road, notes floodway limit
Summary
The commission recommended amending the North Platte future land‑use map and rezoning 492 West North River Road to allow subdivision and a residential site, while noting that the southwest portion of the parcel lies within a floodway where new structures cannot be built.
On March 24 the North Platte Planning Commission recommended approval of two related applications affecting 492 West North River Road: AM26‑00001, an amendment to the city’s future land‑use map to residential low‑density single family, and Z26‑00001, rezoning the property from A1 to RL suburban dwelling district. Both recommendations will be forwarded to city council on April 7.
Planning staff (Judy) told commissioners the property is currently used residentially and that the amendment and rezoning are consistent with that use. Staff emphasized that the southwest portion of the parcel lies within a mapped floodway and that no new structures can be built in that floodway.
No members of the public testified during the public hearing. Commissioners asked map‑labeling questions, confirmed the house location north of the floodway, and noted that because the resulting lots would be smaller than 10 acres the property must be rezoned to allow the subdivision. Commissioner Dave was recorded as abstaining on the amendment vote.
Both the amendment and rezoning were recommended for council consideration.
