City Council - Jul 20, 2026
The council was to hold public hearings on three linked requests for a Culver's at the old Hall's Nursery site: a rezoning of 24300 Harper and 21501 Blackburn to B-3 General Business, a special land use for the drive-thru, and site plan approval. Residents on Blackburn worry about noise, traffic and the loss of the residential buffer next to their homes.
