Duluth approves rezoning of 3639 Rogers Bridge Road to allow single‑family home
Summary
The council approved rezoning of a 0.52‑acre parcel at 3639 Rogers Bridge Road from O‑I to R‑50 to allow a single‑family residence after staff and the Planning Commission recommended R‑50 as the better fit for the lot size.
The Duluth Mayor and Council voted June 8 to rezone a 0.52‑acre parcel at 3639 Rogers Bridge Road (PIN R7203 045) from O‑I (Office/Institutional) to R‑50 (single‑family residential) to allow construction of a single‑family home. Community Development/Engineering Director Margie Pozin said the parcel’s size and 75‑foot width make O‑I uses impractical and that R‑50 zoning offers more flexibility in designing a home on the lot; the Planning Commission recommended approval of R‑50 with the owner’s concurrence.
Applicant Juan Altamirano Ramos requested the rezoning; the minutes record no public opposition at the hearing. Councilmember Thomas moved and Councilmember Graeder seconded the motion to approve ordinance O2026-24 rezoning the parcel to R‑50; the motion carried with Park, Thomas, Doss, Graeder and Cummings recorded as voting in favor.
The rezoning aligns the parcel’s zoning with surrounding established residential uses as described in the meeting minutes. The minutes do not record specific site plan details or building permits; any development will be subject to standard permitting and code requirements following rezoning.
