A quiet corner of Sevier Avenue could go commercial
A residential parcel near the north end of Sevier has a rezoning request in front of the Planning Commission. Here's what's actually on the table.

A parcel at 2704 Sevier Avenue — up at the northeast end, near Baker — has a rezoning request working its way through the system. The owner, through Connolly Development Ventures, is asking to move it from RN-2, single-family residential, to C-N, neighborhood commercial.
In plain terms: a lot zoned for a house could be cleared for a small neighborhood business. Nothing's decided yet — the Planning Commission takes it up on July 9, with the staff recommendation due about a week before. It's the kind of small change that quietly shapes what Sevier Avenue becomes, so we'll be watching. You can too.
