A proposed development, Francis Commons, went before the Francis Planning Commission on January 21st.
After a public hearing, Planning Commissioners unanimously voted to send on a negative recommendation to City Council.
The applicant, Kit Burton, from the firm Wild Willow Limited, asked for rezoning of nearly 18 acres, west of Highway 32 and near the intersection where 32 makes a right turn, heading west.
The city staff reported the parcel is under what’s called a “Residential-Half” zone, which now would allow 35 single-family homes.
