Key Signals

  • Lots zoned for commercial and single-family use, some still under Orange County designations, are proposed as one planned commercial development on Beulah Road and Palm Avenue. Ordinance 26-29 would rezone 2.11 +/- acres at the northeast corner of Beulah Road and Gillard Avenue from City C-2 (Arterial Commercial District), City R-1 (Single-Family Residential District) and Orange County R-1 (Single-Family Dwelling District) to PCD (Planned Commercial Development). Ordinance 26-28 covers 1.47 ± acres now designated Orange County Low Density Residential and City Low Density Residential. The Planning and Zoning Board's September 14, 2026 agenda carried the same 882 Magnolia item (2026-09-agenda-PZB.md).
  • Annexation, land use and zoning travel as one package. Ordinance 26-27 would annex the 1.30 ± acres at 1221, 1233 and 1281 Beulah Road; Ordinance 26-28 would set City Commercial land use on 1.47 ± acres that add 921 Palm Avenue; Ordinance 26-29 would set PCD zoning across the full 2.11 +/- acres, and 882 Magnolia Street and 1211 Beulah Road appear only in that ordinance.
  • The artificial turf standard distinguishes impervious and pervious turf. Ordinance 26-25 amends Section 114-38 with installation and maintenance requirements for both kinds.
