Property development

  • On June 16, city officials formally approved a zoning application for the properties located at 1981 Echo Hollow Road, 4190 Barger Drive, and 4180 Barger Drive. The approved project changes the zoning designation of these properties from Low-Density Residential (R-1) to Neighborhood Commercial (C-1). This rezoning allows for a broader range of commercial uses at these addresses, shifting them from residential to neighborhood-oriented commercial zoning. (view application)
