Planning Commission recommends LI2 zoning for 5.9-acre parcel ahead of Blythewood council review
Summary
The Town of Blythewood Planning Commission voted 4-1 to recommend LI2 zoning for a 5.9-acre parcel pending annexation, after planners and the applicant said the lot is part of the larger Scout Motors development and will not be used for housing. The recommendation goes to Town Council for first reading June 22.
The Town of Blythewood Planning Commission voted 4-1 to recommend LI2 zoning for a 5.9-acre parcel that is pending annexation and is part of the Scout Motors development.
A planning staff member told commissioners the zoning map amendment will go before Town Council for first reading on June 22 and for second reading at the July meeting. "This annexation will go before town council later this month at the June 22nd meeting. That'll be for first reading and then it'll go for second reading at the July Town Council meeting," the staff member said.
Tiffany Harrison, representing Christian County and speaking for the applicant, showed a GIS map of the parcel and said it is interior to the larger site. Commissioners asked about environmental checks and possible uses; Harrison and staff said the parcel was incorporated into the larger site development plan and that required environmental and infrastructure work is part of that process. "No houses or anything will be built and it's not going to be zoned for that," Harrison said, adding the parcel will be zoned to match the rest of the Scout Motors property.
After a brief discussion and confirmation that the parcel had been part of the original site development (the speaker said the property was previously owned by Fearful Electric), a commissioner moved to recommend LI2 zoning and another commissioner seconded the motion. The commission voted to forward the recommendation to Town Council; the transcript records the vote as four in favor and one opposed, with Commissioner Travis Smith recorded voting "nay" and Commissioner Jamal Mosley recorded voting "yay." The chair announced, "Motion carries."
The Planning Commission's recommendation will appear on the Town Council agenda on Monday, June 22 for first reading. No members of the public offered comments during the meeting.
The commission also approved corrections to the minutes from its May 4 meeting before considering the zoning item and adjourned after the vote.
