A bill for an ordinance was approved on July 14, 2025, to change the zoning classification for the property at 1252 West Byers Place in the Valverde neighborhood, Council District 3. The property is being rezoned from E-TU-B (Estate Two-Unit Building) to I-MX-3 (Industrial Mixed Use). The approval includes specific waivers that restrict primary permitted uses on the street level to Industrial, Manufacturing, and Wholesale Primary Use Classifications, with all accessory uses also required to be non-residential. This restriction is justified by the site's location within a Manufacturing Preservation Area, aligning land uses with planned guidance. An informational notice of the application was sent on February 6, 2025, and a Planning Board public hearing was noticed on August 19, 2025. The Committee approved filing this item on September 10, 2025. Community outreach was conducted by the applicant, involving 18 nearby property owners, the City Council District 3 office, and the Valverde Neighborhood Association, which generated mixed support and opposition.
