Recorded in the minutes as: “c. Approve 2026 Springtime Hill Climb Special Event Application Hodges/ Motion: Birch moved to approve the Second Reading of Ordinance #967 – Consider zoning map amendment for property generally located in the 7000 block of SE 6th Avenue from A-1 to R-2. Senior Planner Brain Dunkelberger explained that the City Council has the authority, in accordance with City Code Chapter 166 Procedures, Amendments, Enforcement, and Nonconformities, Section 05 Amendments, to amend, supplement, or change the zoning district designations and/or boundaries established by the zoning map after proper public notices and hearings and after receiving a recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission. The City received a written request to change the zoning classification of property generally located in the 7000 block of SE 6th Avenue, then passed Resolution 011326-05 on January 13, 2026, to refer the request to the Planning & Zoning Commission. The subject property is currently zoned A-1 Agricultural/Open Space and is used for row crop production. Surrounding properties include additional row crop land to the south, acreage-style single-family properties to the southwest, east, and north, and undeveloped residential land to the northwest - platted as Peter’s Ridge Subdivision in 2018. The Pleasant Hill corporate limits boundary borders most of the subject property. The Future Land Use Plan, as adopted in Pleasant Hill 2050, the City’s comprehensive plan, designates the subject property as “Low Density Residential” which is defined as single-family detached dwellings with densities ranging from 1 to 5 dwelling units per acre. City Planning and Zoning Commission considered the request at their regular meeting on February 2, 2026, and voted to recommend approval of the request. A public hearing was then set via Resolution 021026-02 at the February 10, 2026, City Council meeting, and the first reading of the ordinance was approved at the regular City Council meeting on February 24, 2026. No comments or questions have been received since the first reading”.
