Rogers Road Annexation and Rezoning (58.18 Acres)
The Council was scheduled to start the annexation process for about 58 acres off Rogers Road and set a March 24 public hearing to rezone the land from Union County R-20 to General Industrial. Industrial rezoning here could shape traffic, jobs, and nearby property uses.
Rogers Road industrial rezoning (parcels 09-369-008, 09-369-008B, 09-366-009)
Three properties along Rogers Road are the subject of a request to move from Union County's R-20 residential zoning to Monroe's General Industrial district. The change could open the door to light industrial and manufacturing uses along the corridor, affecting nearby residents through traffic, noise, and the character of future development. The Planning Board's recommendation would go to City Council for a final decision.
