Webster City council denies request to amend R-3 zoning at 1505 Lynx Avenue
Summary
The council accepted the Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation and denied a request to amend the R-3 zoning district at 1505 Lynx Avenue on Jan. 19; Kassandra Walker submitted a petition of support containing 130 signatures that was noted in the record.
Webster City — The Webster City Council on Jan. 19 voted to deny a petition to amend the city's R-3 zoning district for property at 1505 Lynx Avenue after accepting the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation.
Councilmember John Marvel moved to accept the commission's recommendation to deny the zoning change and Megan McFarland seconded; the motion carried on a unanimous roll-call vote. The minutes record that Kassandra Walker brought forward a petition of support with 130 signatures from residents of Webster City and Hamilton County; the minutes do not state whether the petition supported or opposed the requested amendment beyond describing it as a "petition of support."
The meeting record does not include further public testimony or additional detail about the substance of the requested amendment in the ordinance text. Because the minutes summarize action rather than transcripted public testimony, the council's denial is the formal outcome recorded in the municipal minutes. Any party seeking greater detail on planning findings or the full petition text should consult the Planning and Zoning Commission record and the city clerk's office.
