Commission to schedule new public hearing after Darlene King submits revised rezoning request
Summary
Following city council’s recent denial of C3 for several parcels owned by Darlene King, the commission asked King to submit a new application and voted to schedule a fresh public hearing on her proposed R2 alternative so neighbors can comment on the revised plan.
The commission addressed old business concerning five parcels owned by Darlene King after city council denied a prior C3 rezoning request. Council asked the commission to consider whether R2 (multifamily/residential) would be a reasonable alternative.
Commissioners emphasized that Musgrove Street should remain R1 because it is within the historic district and that any change should allow neighbors time to review a different plan. The group agreed the fair process is for the owner to file a new application accompanied by a proposed plan; the commission will then schedule a public hearing and notify adjacent property owners. One commissioner moved for a new public hearing on the owner’s revised plan; the motion was seconded and approved.
Staff said the revised application will trigger standard public-notice procedures (signs, adjacent-owner notices) and advised the commission that if the owner does not file a new request, no hearing will be scheduled. City council previously denied the C3 request the night before, so this action restarts the process if the owner seeks R2.
The commission’s decision was procedural: it did not change zoning tonight but required the applicant to initiate the formal request for a hearing.
