507 Contentnea Avenue Rezoning

New Bern, NC

Description

GO Architectural Design's request to rezone the 0.178-acre parcel from R-8 residential to C-4 commercial was approved unanimously after a public hearing. The property has been used and taxed as commercial for years and sits next to existing commercial zoning.

Impact summary

The longtime owners can now sell the property with clean commercial zoning; neighbors get continuity since the site has operated commercially for decades.
