City Council Agendas, Packets and Minutes - Jun 15, 2026
The 12 E. Cherry Street property is back to General Business zoning after being flipped to residential in 2024. The change lets a business add a drive-through, but it required rezoning the whole parcel, not just a strip — and council members noted it could be flipped back someday.

The owner of the strip mall at 12 E. Cherry Street wants the land rezoned back to General Business so a tenant can add a drive-thru window. The council advanced the first reading 8-1; final action comes June 15.
