A vote on a zoning matter failed to get approval from a majority of the Hampton City Council at its June 14 regular meeting, but it will be looked at again next month.

A conditional use request was made for property at 23 James Street which is zoned for single-family residential use.

The applicant is seeking to convert a detached garage into an accessory apartment on the 13,943-square-foot lot. Two separate motions were made on the issue and both failed to pass. The ordinance will have its second reading at the July council meeting, according to officials.
