Commission recommends rezoning for Emergency Services District No. 3 administration site
Summary
The commission recommended rezoning a roughly 2.55‑acre site east of Jackson Street from place type P3 (neighborhood) to P5 (core) to accommodate a new Emergency Services District No. 3 administration building; staff said the change matches adjacent zoning and includes required street and drainage improvements.
Planning staff presented a rezoning concept for a 2.55‑acre site east of Jackson Street (1811 Jasper Street) to change its place type from P3 neighborhood to P5 Core, enabling commercial building types that would house a new Emergency Services District No. 3 administration office and associated infrastructure. Staff said the parcel is adjacent to existing P5 zoning to the north and other corridor and PDD designations nearby, and that required improvements include upgrades to Jasper Street and on‑site detention to address Gilles Branch drainage.
Staff recommended approval under the B3/BDC rezoning criteria (appropriateness of place type, consistency with comprehensive plan, supply of similar zoning nearby, development rate, and public health/safety). No members of the public spoke during the brief hearing on this item; the commission moved to recommend approval to City Council and the motion passed on roll call.
