Monroe zoning approvals fuel industrial park plans

The Monroe- Ouachita Regional Planning Commission approved a light industry park at U. S. 165 and Buckhorn Bend Road near Monroe. It extended a transition district to cover Unit 1 Southwest Industrial Park except lots 1 and 2 of Block B. The panel also advanced rezoning requests and zone expansions including 903-909 Walnut St to B-1 for apartments, a six unit complex at College and Webster, and a general business district extension near U. S. 165 Bypass Cole Ave. It deferred a North 3rd Erin Rochelle rezoning decision, and approved Pendleton Street dedication and the coming year budget.
