There suing bc St. George changed their zoning that’s been place for decades. That property has lost value with the denial and change, thus the lawsuit..

No different than when a city incorporates more land in a county or parish. Zoning laws change.

These are their plans, which include an apartment complex. If you've been on Pecue at 4:30 pm on a workday, you understand how much of a CF this will be.

So, infrastructure and drainage are legit reasons to kill it then.

I mean what’s the purpose of even building a new interchange if you aren’t going to box it up with some strip mall attractions?

Also worth noting, even EBR Parish eliminated the C2 zoning classification in July 1999 because it was too generic. They've been grandfathered in to that now defunct zoning district. St. George is trying to do the right thing by zoning it appropriately, which should have been done decades ago.

Exactly. The Kleinpeter family has owned the land for generations and held it long-term. Now that they are planning to develop the remaining property, the rules are being rewritten at the 11th hour.
There was a reasonable expectation, based on typical zoning around regional interchanges, that MX-4 level development would remain on the table. These kinds of developments do not get planned overnight. They take years of holding costs, engineering, traffic work, and coordination around major infrastructure like the interchange.
When the state expropriated portions of the property and constructed the interchange, that is what those long-term plans were effectively built around. Now the city is changing the development baseline after the biggest public investment in the corridor has already been made.

Can you brush that up into legible English please...and NO ebonics

Explain to me how/why a city would approve a development of this scale on a roadway that backs up from Airline to past Reiger DAILY. The once quiet adjacent subdivision is now having to deal with a tremendous amount of cut through traffic. Not to mention a few of the adjacent houses flooded in 2021 even with the area being undeveloped. EBR may have rubber stamped everything that came before them, but that's exactly why St. George became a thing. People were fed up with EBR allowing this kind of uncontrolled development.
The neighboring subdivision was built on Kleinpeter land. The family should have known when they sold that land to build a nice neighborhood that they would get pushback for trying to build a 4+ story hotel and apartment complex right behind them.

St. George became a thing because that's what they were told they needed to do before they could have a breakaway school system. Look how well that worked out for them.

No, the Highline is on that massive piece of land at the corner of Airline and Highland. I believe that project has already started.

does StG have updated zoning maps? Anyone know what the current zoning is for that property?
