Commission denies rezoning request for 18.5-acre Apple Lane parcel
The commission unanimously denied a rezoning request by Roy Austin McCarter for an approximately 18.5-acre parcel on Apple Lane. Development Director Corey Divel told the commission the property is remote, the surrounding roads are narrow residential streets and staff considered the rezoning premature given current infrastructure.

Commissioner Butch Stott moved to deny the request and Daryl Roberts seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The denial reflected staff concerns about access and the capacity of narrow local roads to safely serve a campground-type development at that location.
