The Stockbridge Planning Commission voted unanimously at its Feb. 25 regular meeting to recommend denial of a rezoning request for a residential subdivision on Brannan Road. The applicant was seeking a change from RA (residential agricultural) to R-3 (single-family residential) for a 73.71-acre site along the southeast corner of Brannan Road and North Salem Drive.

The site previously consisted of five separate parcels, which the Planning Commission voted at its December meeting to combine into a single parcel. The final decision on the rezoning lies with the City Council, which will consider the case at its March 8 regular meeting.
