The road-plan amendments and industrial rezoning still require City Council consideration, with readings scheduled for March 5 and March 19, 2026. If approved, the rezoning would allow light-industrial development on nearly 197 acres. The travel-center plat was approved with a condition requiring approval of its onsite sewage system before recording; one commissioner raised concerns about traffic and large vehicles near an elementary school.
