Chelsea Planning Commission Recommends HighPointe Rezoning With Conditions

The Chelsea Planning Commission voted 5-1 on June 22 to recommend approval of the HighPointe Properties rezoning from Agricultural-Residential (A-R) to Single-Family Residential (R-1), subject to conditions agreed with the homeowners association. The recommendation now goes to the City Council for a final decision. The commission also unanimously recommended a separate rezoning request along Brasher Lane and received a third request without action.

HighPointe rezoning advances with 20-lot cap, buffer, bond

Commissioners recommended the HighPointe Properties rezone after adding conditions that include a 20-lot cap, a buffer, and a bond. The vote was 5-1. The conditions were worked out between the applicant and the existing homeowners association. The rezoning would allow for single-family homes on the property. The City Council will hold a public hearing and vote on the proposal at a future meeting.
