SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS TO REZONE
0.29 ACRES AT 1209 NEVADA AVE FROM A HIGHWAY AND
ARTERIAL BUSINESS (B-3) ZONE DISTRICT TO A MIXED
RESIDENTIAL (R-4) ZONE DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to rezone 0.29 acres at 1209 Nevada Ave. from a Highway
and Arterial Business (B-3) Zone District to a Mixed Residential (R-4) Zone District to
facilitate residential development.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The proposed rezoning is located at the northeast corner of Nevada Ave. and California
St. east of Lake Minnequa. The northern portion of the property is currently zoned
Highway and Arterial Business (B-3), while the southern portion is zoned Mixed
Residential (R-4). The B-3 Zone District is intended to provide business and services
along highway and arterial streets. The District allows ample uses -by right that are
primarily commercial in nature. In contrast, the R-4 Zone District is primarily intended
for residential use. Single-family residences, duplexes, ADUs, and multi -family
residences are all allowed by -right in the R-4 zone district. Only a few business and
service -oriented uses are allowed. The applicant wishes to develop their entire
ownership for a single-family residence and repurpose the existing structure into their
residential garage.
The 2022 Pueblo Regional Comprehensive Plan designates this area as a
Neighborhood Mixed -Use, characterized by small-scale commercial activities that
service adjacent residences with everyday needs. Both residential and small-scale
commercial uses are typical within the Neighborhood Mixed -Use. The areas to the west
Docusign Envelope ID: D6A07540-61 F9-8130-83A8-42E0D281 D411
and south of the subject property are home to an auto shop, bar, trailer park, and
Christlife Ministries. The areas north and east are developed with single-family
residences. Thus, the residential uses allowed within the R-4 Zone District are
compatible with the Neighborhood Mixed -Use characteristic.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their August 12, 2026, Regular Meeting,
voted 7-0 to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission
Public Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public
Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance the property will not be rezoned in
accordance with the Pueblo Municipal Code. Half of the subject property will remain in
a B-3 Zone District while the other half will be in an R-4 Zone District.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
