Rick Eilers is trying to get signatures from property holders owning 80 percent of the land adjacent to the requested rezoning area for The Preserve, the proposed 800-acre planned development on the southside.
If he’s successful, that would require a supermajority of the Lancaster City Council, not just a simple majority, to approve the rezoning, assuming the Lancaster Planning and Zoning Commission signs off on it Tuesday, Nov. 7.
If you live next to the site, focused on the Bear Creek/Houston School/Bluegrove roads area, or know someone who does, you can call Eilers at 972-989-0638.
And, if you want to try to get P&Z to say no, which would also force a supermajority approval from the council, you can e-mail P&Z Chairman Jer Giles here.
Eilers says that City Manager Jim Landon is pushing this to the point of already having given Topletz access to some of the land. Wasn’t this the same guy suing the city a year ago over Landon’s telling him he had to have all-underground utility lines on his Pleasant Run development? Politics and development do indeed make strange bedfellows.
