Rezoning approved for West 19th Street corridor as part of commercial transition
Summary
Commission approved zone case 2538RR (SF2 → Heavy Commercial) 6–0, with the applicant noting the West 19th corridor is transitioning toward commercial uses; no opposition was recorded.
The Planning Commission voted 6–0 to recommend approval of zone case 2538RR, rezoning a site near Wausau Avenue and 19th Street from single‑family (SF2) to Heavy Commercial (HC). Applicant Gary Garza said the corridor is transitioning toward heavy commercial uses and that rezoning would align the parcel with nearby commercial zoning.
Staff found the request reasonably compatible given existing HC zoning nearby and the property’s frontage along a principal arterial. No members of the public registered opposition at the hearing. The commission’s recommendation will go to City Council for first reading on Aug. 25.
