Council rezones 512 East Main Street to allow up to 12 units with binding elements
Summary
The Glasgow City Council approved on second reading a rezoning from R‑2 to R‑4 for 512 East Main Street, allowing up to 12 units in three fourplex buildings with binding elements including no entrance from Sam Terry and no construction in the floodplain.
Glasgow City Council approved a second‑reading ordinance to rezone about 1.898 acres at 512 East Main Street from R‑2 (medium‑density residential) to R‑4 (multifamily residential). The applicant, Kenneth R. Ford, requested the change; the joint city–county planning and zoning commission held a due‑process hearing and unanimously recommended approval.
The ordinance includes three binding elements the developer must follow: no entrance from Sam Terry, a maximum of 12 units configured as three fourplex buildings, and no construction within the floodplain area. Council members asked whether the site has appropriate access from Main Street and whether fire and police access concerns had been addressed; staff said planning and zoning had reviewed those matters during the commission review.
With no further discussion, the council took a roll‑call vote and passed the second reading unanimously as recorded. The ordinance takes effect upon passage and publication as required by law.
The council also adopted the commission findings and incorporated schematic exhibits and binding elements into the ordinance.
