On June 16, 2025 the City Council voted 7–0 to approve the final reading of an ordinance granting a map amendment (MA-25-01) that rezones 800 Busse Highway (09-27-215-012-0000) from the B-three general commercial district to the B-one retail and office district, at the request of the owner and applicant. The Planning and Zoning Commission held the hearing on May 27, 2025 and recommended approval unanimously, finding the request consistent with the mix of residential and office uses along Busse Highway.

What was requested, recommended, approved, contracted, reported paid and completed?

Amounts are read from the cited pages and added up by code. A recommendation, an award or an authorized amount does not establish that money was paid.

No amount is published for this item.

Contracts, payments and completion

No contract, payment or completion record is published for this item. Approval alone does not establish completion.

Which parcels, agencies, businesses and projects are explicitly connected?

Official identifiers and exhibit listings connect records. A name, an address or distance alone only suggests a connection.

What remains unresolved?

After the decision: permits at this address

Permits dated after Jun 16, 2025 (City Council approves the rezoning).

Computed by code from the building permits in the Park Ridge property release (the county permit feed), as of Nov 1, 2026. A permit shows that work was authorized, not that it was completed, and no permit recorded does not establish that nothing was built. A parcel matched by address is nominated by the address written in the record; that does not prove the record concerns it.
