Show Notes
Fresno City Council faces a pivotal decision on Thursday, considering a rezone request for eleven parcels in southwest Fresno. The proposed change would revert the area back to light industrial use, reversing parts of a 2017 community plan aimed at reducing pollution and increasing housing. The land, valued at $47 million, is owned by major real estate groups, but current tenants can stay. Residents and community leaders are strongly opposed, citing environmental justice concerns and lost housing potential for over 7,000 units. Landowners have fired back with claims of flawed data and bias, requesting a delay and disputing housing math. The outcome of Thursdays vote will significantly impact the areas future.
