The Knox County Council approved two zoning ordinance amendments during its July 13 meeting, including a rezoning that will change 903 Broadway in Vincennes from commercial (C-1) to residential (R-2).
A staff member read ordinance 12-20-26, describing amendments for the Eddie Thompson Drive parcel; council completed second and third readings and passed the measure on final reading by a 6-0 vote. The meeting record shows the area plan commission had previously issued a favorable recommendation to council for the amendment.
On the 903 Broadway parcel, a staff member read ordinance 13-20-26, describing the property and sections affected. An applicant representative told the council the owners had APC approval and "their plans are to turn that into an Airbnb," and asked the council to proceed. Council held second and third readings and passed the ordinance by a 6-0 vote.
Council members asked only brief procedural questions during each item's discussion; one council member reminded the applicant that a paving charge for work near the property remains outstanding and should be addressed by the owners. Both measures move forward as final ordinances following the council vote.
The council completed routine agenda business afterward, including claims and payroll approvals. The rezoning vote was recorded as 6-0 on both ordinances.
