Summary
Council passed ZN 12 20 25 (ordinance 3264) to reclassify 0.9 acres near Trade Drive and North Martin Luther King Boulevard to an industrial/business‑park district for small warehouses and yards; applicant reported no opposition at neighborhood outreach.
The City Council approved ZN 12 20 25 and Ordinance 3264 to reclassify 0.9 acres for the Diamond MLK Commerce Park project. Jennifer Verlazovich, representing the applicant, said the site sits adjacent to existing industrial uses and that neighborhood outreach produced no opposition; planning commission recommended approval.
Councilmembers thanked staff and the applicant for providing visuals to clarify the site and moved to pass and adopt the ordinance. Council recorded the motion as passing; no roll‑call tally was read into the transcript. Staff noted the project will consist of several small warehouse buildings and individual yards and will be coordinated with existing commercial uses nearby.
