The purpose of the proposed zoning changes is to rezone residential and non-residential property to zoning classifications that reflect the prevailing land use and appropriate land use policies. For your reference, the attached PowerPoint presentation shows the future land use from the 2009 Comprehensive Plan, the current zoning, and the proposed zoning. Council Member Hicks would like to initiate rezoning of these areas in response to neighborhood concerns. An informational meeting for the West Meadowbrook neighborhood was held on August 17, 2009, which was attended by area property owners and staff. At this meeting, the property owners expressed support for the proposed zoning changes. Two persons in opposition have been noted to date. Public hearings for the rezoning of these properties would be held by the Zoning Commission on November 11 and by the City Council on December 8. If you have any questions, please contact Dana Burghdoff, Deputy Planning and Development Director, at 817-392-8018. Dale A. Fisseler, P.E.
