Council approves a package of rezoning and subdivision ordinances across the parish
Summary
On July 9 the Plaquemines Parish Council adopted a series of zoning- and subdivision-related ordinances (Nos. 26-88 through 26-100 and several others) to rezone multiple parcels, approve resubdivisions and variances; most were adopted after prior public hearings and Development Board recommendations.
The Plaquemines Parish Council on July 9 adopted a package of ordinances approving map changes, rezoning requests and subdivision/resubdivision plans across multiple wards and neighborhoods.
Key actions included Ordinance No. 26-88 (Adolph Rentals — rezoning Lots YA-2 and YA-3 in Boothville from A-2 to MH), Ordinance No. 26-89 (Headrick — rezoning a Pointe Celeste Farms lot from FP to I-3), Ordinance No. 26-90 (Plaquemines Parish Ventures — rezoning to MH), and a sequence of ordinances (26-92 through 26-100) approving resubdivisions and multiple rezonings in Pointe Celeste/Tract 2-A/Nairn Lands and other locations. Ordinance No. 26-93 approved a two-lot resubdivision (Martinez) and granted frontage variances on the record.
The minutes note that required public hearings were held previously and that the Plaquemines Parish Development Board recommended approval for the listed map changes. For several petitions the minutes also state there were objections documented during the public hearing stage, but the Council moved forward and voted to adopt each ordinance on final passage. Roll-call tallies recorded for the ordinances show broad Council support for the reclassifications; where absences were noted those roll-call records are indicated in the minutes.
Votes at a glance (selected ordinances recorded in minutes): - Ord. 26-88 (Adolph Rentals, Boothville) — rezoned to MH; adopted (unanimous roll call). - Ord. 26-89 (Brandon S. Headrick) — rezoned to I-3; adopted (unanimous roll call). - Ord. 26-90 (Plaquemines Parish Ventures, LLC) — rezoned to MH; adopted (unanimous roll call). - Ord. 26-92 (TB Squared resubdivision, Empire) — approved; adopted (unanimous roll call). - Ord. 26-93 (Martinez resubdivision, Jesuit Bend) — approved with frontage variances; adopted (unanimous roll call). - Ord. 26-94 through 26-100 (various Equiland/Nairn Lands and related rezoning petitions) — adopted on final passage; some petitions had objections at the hearing stage but carried on Council votes.
The minutes record Development Board endorsements or prior public hearings for the map changes and state that legal advertisement requirements were met (Plaquemines Gazette). The Council’s recorded votes and the ordinances’ text are the official record of the actions taken; the minutes do not provide extended transcripts of public testimony for each petition in this meeting’s text.
The Council proceeded to other business after completing the zoning and subdivision items, and the meeting adjourned at 4:53 p.m.
