Pitts Road Auto Sales Rezoning

At a glance

  • What: two linked bills for Fluffy Buttons, LLC at 6919 Pitts Road, between New Kings Road and Moncrief-Dinsmore Road (District 8): 2026-0126 changes the land use of about 1.88 acres from Low Density Residential to Community General Commercial; 2026-0127 rezones about 5.55 acres (including 10650 and 0 New Kings Road) from RR-Acre, CCG-2 and PUD to a PUD permitting an auto sales company operating mainly online (the Pitts Road Auto PUD).
  • Where it stands: the committee opened and continued the hearings on 2026-10-20 to November 4, 2026; full council hearings are set for October 27, 2026. The North CPAC recommended denial of the PUD.
  • Why it matters: the bills have been continued at nearly every meeting since February 2026 (introduced 2/24/26). Opponents Ceres and Travis-Leonard spoke against both bills.
