Council rezones small Portland Avenue parcel to general commercial to align with adjacent uses
Summary
Council approved rezoning of approximately 0.074 acres at 1366 Portland Avenue from RS-6 to general commercial; staff and the agent said notices went to nearby property owners and P&Z recommended approval.
The Abilene City Council voted to rezone roughly 0.074 acres at 1366 Portland Avenue from RS-6 to general commercial on April 26.
Tim Littlejohn presented Zoning Case 2026-08 and said the request would "square up" the commercial zoning at the end of the block and that notifications returned three in favor and none opposed; Planning & Zoning recommended approval. Agent Tal Fillingham told the council the rezoning largely consolidates lots for a planned development and that an alley abandonment was part of the concept.
After a brief public hearing and no opposition, council members voted to approve the rezoning as presented.
