County Rejects Move to Light Industrial Zoning for Car Lot
Douglas County commissioners denied Howard Smith's request to rezone land from agricultural to light industrial to move his 23rd Street car business onto county land near Kansas Highway 10. Staff backed denial and urged annexation or a planned industrial district. Officials said county zoning should not host a used car lot, but expressed sympathy for Smith who plans to retire and would still sell cars at his existing site.
