Residents and developer back rezoning of Troy parcel D8-011550

Troy City Council · August 17, 2026

Summary

Council read Ordinance 033-2026 to rezone parcel D8-011550 to R5; the public hearing was opened and closed with no speakers during the hearing, and later residents and a public commenter signaled support during citizen comment.

Ordinance 033-2026, proposing to change the zoning of parcel D8-011550 in Troy from central business / R3 to R5 single-family residential, was read to council on Aug. 17 as second reading. The council noted the Troy Planning Commission recommended approval and that a public hearing had been held; no one spoke during the formal hearing.

During general public comment later in the meeting, resident Heather Sturgil spoke in favor of the rezoning: "I'd like you to support that ordinance. We'd like to make it our new home," she said, giving her address as 323 East Main Street. The council did not take a final vote on the ordinance at the meeting; it remains on the committee agenda for follow-up.

Why it matters: the rezoning would move the parcel into a single-family residential designation, a change that would affect permitted uses and future development on the property. Supporters in the audience said they favor the change; no formal opposition was recorded in the transcript.

Next steps: the item was placed on the committee agenda and will return for further consideration.
