NEW BUSINESS 
 
1. Recommendation on rezoning request by George Hester to change two parcels 
identified as Tax Map 0048I Group A Parcels 005.00 and 006.00 located at on Ingleside 
Avenue from to B-1 Local Business District to R-2 Medium Density Residential District 
containing approximately 0.67 acres.  
 
 
 
The owner is requesting this change to allow construction of one duplex on each of these 
14000+ square foot parcels. There is R-2 located across Ingleside to the West. The area is shown 
as Commercial on the Future Land Use Map with a dwelling unit density of 5-10 per acre, so the 
request meets this threshold with the growth plan of the city.  
 
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning request from B-1 Local Business to R-2 Medium 
Density Residential.
