Public hearing set for O'Reilly Auto Parts rezoning application on Coshocton Avenue
Summary
Council set a hearing for May 26 on a request to rezone two Coshocton Avenue lots to general business to allow an expansion of the O'Reilly Auto Parts store; staff said the Municipal Planning Commission recommended approval with no opposition and buffers will be required.
The Land Use and Development committee scheduled a public hearing for May 26 on a rezoning request that would change two lots on Coshocton Avenue to general business (GB) to allow O'Reilly Auto Parts to expand into an adjacent parcel.
Staff said O'Reilly currently occupies one lot and has purchased the adjacent lot; the proposal would reorient the store and create two exits to improve circulation. The Municipal Planning Commission reviewed the application and recommended approval without opposition, staff said. Committee members emphasized that rezoning is property-specific and future buyers could use GB zoning for a different business, so screening and buffer requirements remain important.
Next steps: The rezoning will appear at the May 26 public hearing; councilmembers and staff noted site plans and buffer details will be examined as part of the hearing process.
