Summary

The commission approved a PD amendment permitting a 137,760‑sq‑ft distribution center with outdoor storage and office space on a 44.8‑acre lot (PD‑169); staff said the site supports local employment goals and received no public opposition.

The Planning and Zoning Commission approved an amendment to PD‑169 allowing a 137,760‑square‑foot distribution center with roughly 95,000 sq ft of warehouse space and 43,000 sq ft of office and outdoor storage for Encore Measurement Services. Staff said the project fits industrial module policies (jobs and diversification of the employment base), reported no opposition, and recommended approval; the commission voted 4–0 in favor.

The applicant’s engineer said the site will be owned by Encore and that required infrastructure upgrades were not expected immediately, though a future right‑turn lane into the site may be needed as surrounding land develops. Commissioners asked standard traffic and drainage questions; staff and the applicant said the site plan complies with landscaping and elevation requirements and no variances were requested.
