Summary

The City Council adopted an ordinance rezoning the roughly 16-acre former Boise Cascade/OfficeMax site at 1749 Bonham Road from M-2C to Flexible Redevelopment District (FRD), a change the council said opens redevelopment options including indoor recreation uses such as pickleball courts.

Bristol City Council completed second reading and adopted an ordinance on Nov. 26 rezoning the property at 1749 Bonham Road (tax map parcel 267-6-1) from M-2C (General Industrial with Conditions) to FRD (Flexible Redevelopment District).

Director of Community Development Jay Detrick summarized the request from Jim Street of Coronet Drive LLC and noted that the roughly 16-acre site is the former Boise Cascade/OfficeMax location. The Planning Commission previously held a joint public hearing and recommended approval. Councilmember Michael Pollard described the proposed reuse, including indoor pickleball courts, as a good fit for the site and said he expected minimal adverse impacts on nearby residents.

Council approved the second reading and then adopted the ordinance; both motions passed 5-0. The second reading was moved and approved by Councilmember Michael Pollard and Councilmember Neal Osborne; adoption was moved by Councilmember Neal Osborne and seconded by Vice Mayor Jake Holmes.

The rezoning to FRD allows flexible redevelopment options subject to any FRD conditions and site plan review. Future development proposals will proceed through standard permitting and plan-approval processes.
