Council approves small rezone at 2382 E. 1200 N.; public hearing yields no public comment

The council unanimously approved a rezone for a small parcel at 2382 East 1200 North after staff described the request and the council opened and closed a public hearing with no speakers.

Planning staff explained the parcel is a roughly 533-square‑foot remnant that had remained under school district ownership when the city purchased adjacent property with CDBG funds. The property owner requested the rezone to R1-10 so the parcel’s zoning will match the owner’s adjacent lot and allow a future plat amendment to merge the lot into a single parcel.

Weston Apollone (speaker 5) told the council the planning commission voted unanimously on June 23, 2026, to recommend approval of Ordinance 26-22 subject to meeting staff memoranda. The council opened the public hearing; no members of the public spoke. Councilman (speaker 13) moved to close the hearing and adopt Ordinance 26-22. The chair conducted a roll call: Councilmember Morris, Councilmember Calendranos, Councilmember Thomas, Councilmember Bloxham and Councilmember Smith Edmondson were recorded as voting "Aye," and the mayor declared the motion unanimous.

The ordinance rezone is administrative and staff told the council the next step for the property owner would be to submit a plat amendment to combine the small parcel into the adjacent lot. No conditions or takings were reported; staff said the project uses existing public utility easements or city right‑of‑way and that purchased property to the north allowed installation of sidewalk.

The council concluded the item and moved to the meeting’s remaining business.
