Planning and Zoning Commission recommends Part 1 with four changes, 5-2
For case Z-21-05, a 650.15-acre rezoning of the north portion of the plan area, the commission voted 5-2 to recommend approval with changes: removing the area south and west of the railroad tracks and north of Amarillo Boulevard, removing one large privately owned tract north of 15th Avenue and west of N. Rusk, keeping Light Commercial zoning along Amarillo Boulevard, and letting "down zoned" property keep its current allowed uses for the life of the property.[1][2]
