Zoning Changes to Facilitate Commercial Development on Pleasant Grove Road

The Rogers City Council is considering an ordinance to rezone a property on Pleasant Grove Road to support new commercial developments. The proposal would change the zoning from T5.2 (City Medium-Intensity) to HC (Highway Commercial), enabling a broader range of business opportunities to thrive in this growing area.

The property in question, located at 1707 W. Pleasant Grove Road, has been identified as a prime location for highway commercial activities due to its accessibility and proximity to major transportation routes. City officials believe the rezoning will attract new businesses and bolster the local economy.

The change aligns with the city’s Unified Development Code and its long-term strategic plan for economic growth. During the meeting, city planners emphasized the importance of ensuring that commercial projects in this area remain consistent with the surrounding infrastructure and community needs. If approved, the rezoning will take immediate effect, allowing developers to proceed with plans for the site.
