Summary

The Planning Commission recommended rezoning 2106 Avenue E from M1 (limited industrial) to R3 (multifamily medium density) to permit a two-unit conversion; staff flagged the property as historically built in 1910 and consistent with the 2016 comprehensive plan.

The Kearney City Planning Commission voted to recommend rezoning 2106 Avenue E from District M1 (limited industrial) to District R3 (urban residential, multifamily) so the property owner can convert an existing house into a duplex.

Applicant Zach Wolf told the commission he plans one 3-bedroom, 2-bath rental and one 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit aimed at midterm traveling nurses and other working professionals. City staff reported the parcel has a reported construction year of 1910 in the Buffalo County assessor’s records and concluded the requested R3 zoning is compatible with the future land-use designation and surrounding development. "Staff recommends approval of the rezoning," the planner said during the meeting.

No members of the public spoke at the hearing. Commissioners moved and seconded a motion to approve rezoning number 2026-02; the motion carried on a roll call. The Planning Commission’s action is a recommendation to the Kearney City Council, which will take the final vote at a later meeting.
