Summary

At the April 21 meeting, council opened and closed a public hearing on rezoning 21 Stephendale Ct to C-1, postponed a signage text amendment for further P&Z review, and approved first reading of an alley vacation north of 18th Street.

The Rolla City Council opened a public hearing at 7:10 p.m. to consider rezoning 21 Stephendale Court from R-1 (suburban residential) to C-1 (neighborhood commercial) and closed the hearing at 7:16 p.m. The owner submitted a site plan showing up to 11 potential parking spaces contingent on the purchase of 400 W Highway 72. Planning & Zoning approval is contingent on the subject property gaining access to Highway 72, according to the record. City Counselor Nathan Nickolaus read the ordinance for its first reading; the minutes record no additional public comment during the hearing.

Separately, the council moved to postpone a proposed text amendment to Chapter 42 (Planning and Zoning) sections 42-344 through 42-346 concerning signage regulations. The motion to postpone was made by Nathan Chirban and seconded by Tina Balch to allow Planning & Zoning additional time to review modifications; a voice vote recorded 12 Ayes and no Nays.

The council also opened and closed a public hearing at 7:21 p.m. on the vacation of the remainder of an alley north of 18th Street between Elm and Oak Streets. The City of Rolla is the applicant and the record states the right-of-way is no longer needed for municipal access. City Counselor Nickolaus read the ordinance for its first reading.

All three hearings were recorded in the minutes as first readings or postponed items; any subsequent map changes, access agreements for Highway 72, or final ordinances will be subject to Planning & Zoning conditions and required filings.
