The Planning & Zoning Commission approved four measures Monday that move the city’s second hospital closer to becoming a reality.
The commission approved:
- A minor General Plan amendment for 40.6 acres at North White and Parker Road and North Farrell Road from high-density residential, medium-density residential and employment to all high-density residential.
- A zoning map amendment for 4 acres, effectively rezoning the site from general rural to general commercial zoning district.
- A zoning map amendment on 24.5 acres, rezoning the site from general rural to multiple-unit residential zoning district.
- A zoning map amendment for 16.3 acres, to rezone the site from general rural to high-density residential zoning district.
The project covers 60 acres.
The commission also approved site, landscape, elevation and photometric plans for S3 BioTech’s proposed medical and innovation campus that will feature the city’s second hospital, medical office building, 136-unit multi-family residential complex and hotel on approximately 9.4 acres at the southeastern corner of North John Wayne Parkway and West Bowlin Road.
