Planner: Nike missile site proposed to change from industrial to low-density residential

Lisa identified the Nike missile site as a notable parcel in the zoning update and said the map proposes changing the site from industrial to low-density residential.

"The Nike site, which is currently zoned in industrial on the north side of town is proposed to be low density residential," Lisa said while pointing to the map and offering large-format copies for closer inspection. Commissioners noted parts of the site are fenced and that code enforcement recently addressed access gaps.

Staff characterized the change as part of a broader effort to align the map with long-range objectives and to avoid creating unnecessary nonconforming situations for existing multi-unit properties; the commission voted unanimously to recommend the revised map to council.
