During the Aug. 11 public hearing on agenda item C, Dolores Matthews told council she lives in a house at 120 Matthews Lane that "has been there for all my life" and asked that the property be rezoned from conservation open space to residential single-family.
Mayor (speaker 1) described the request as correcting a past clerical situation: when some properties were annexed they were classified as conservation open space and needed to be updated to reflect long-standing residential use. Council moved to approve the rezoning; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
The action rezones TMS 2340705027 to residential single-family; the motion carried with no public opposition recorded in the meeting transcript.
