City must redo zoning vote after misread ruling
Garden City commissioners learned the denial of a zoning amendment to allow fitness facilities in light and industrial zones did not meet state law. The planning commission had recommended approval 5-4, and a 3-2 denial failed to meet two thirds required for a contrary action. The issue, tied to Project Fitness at 921 W Mary St, prompted calls for a rehearing and was sent to the Nov 1 agenda.
