Rezone 2708 & 2712 Jeanette Ave
Description
The owner asked to rezone two parcels from single-family residential (R1) to heavy manufacturing (M2) with a UDC overlay, and the council said yes unanimously.
Impact summary
Keeps the operation legal but bans salvage without special approval; a fence and floodplain/stormwater compliance are required at site review, and residential use can't return without another rezoning.
