WORTHINGTON — In a Tuesday evening meeting that lasted a little less than 15 minutes, the Worthington Planning Commission agreed to forward a written opinion to the Worthington City Council regarding Redevelopment Projects 6 and 7.
The commission’s unanimous vote followed a recommendation from city staff and confirms the projects “conform to a general plan for the development of the locality as a whole,” Worthington Assistant City Administrator/Director of Economic Development Jason Brisson said.
“We want to fit these into the comprehensive plan, and this says that we’re not putting residential where it shouldn’t be,” Brisson explained Tuesday to Planning Commission members.
