The DeKalb City Planning and Zoning Commission on July 6 tabled a petition from the City seeking a special-use permit for a 35-acre public transit facility located at 855 and 900 West Dresser Road.
City staff told the commission the hearing should be tabled so a "more detailed traffic or a noise study" can be completed to assess impacts on nearby residents. The presenter said the city will notify surrounding neighbors by letter at least 15 days before any rescheduled hearing.
Commissioner Shali moved to table the petition; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The presenter said no specific new hearing date was set pending study results.
The staff recommendation emphasized outreach to affected neighbors and the need for technical analysis to gauge potential vehicle and pedestrian impacts before the commission takes further action.
