Council retains 40-foot buffer after developer seeks smaller setback
Summary
Jeremy Jensen proposed reducing the buffer between commercial and residential from 40 feet to 12 feet; the Gregory City Council voted to retain the current 40-foot barrier, with Alex Hamilton recording an abstention.
During new-business discussion on May 5, the council reviewed a proposal from Jeremy Jensen to shrink the buffer between commercial and residential zoning on Lots 7 & 8, Block 4, Grandview from 40 feet to 12 feet. Council members discussed why the 40-foot barrier was decided upon originally and ultimately voted to keep the 40-foot buffer in place. The motion to retain the 40-foot barrier was made by Laura Petersen, seconded by Kristi Drey; the minutes show five ayes and one abstention (Alex Hamilton).
The minutes record the decision as a retention of the existing barrier; they do not list additional mitigation measures or a revised site plan. Parties seeking a variance would need to follow the Planning & Zoning process documented elsewhere and return with any new documentation if they wish to pursue a change.
