Dothan commissioners created a new overlay district for the U.S. Highway 84 East corridor during their Tuesday meeting, approving an amendment to the city’s zoning ordinance to implement the commission’s
The Dothan City Commission voted unanimously to create the overlay district after holding a public hearing on the matter moments earlier.
Within the Highway 84 East overlay district there are six subdistricts: downtown core, downtown edge, three mixed-use subdistricts, and an institutional subdistrict that surrounds Southeast Health. Land uses are intended to smoothly transition from the high-density downtown districts to lower-density mixed-uses that blend commercial, entertainment, retail, and residential developments. Most of the lower-density and mix-used subdistricts are located east of Columbia Highway.
Pepe said there are good aspects to the overlay district, and development professionals are open to change as long as it’s change for the better. “We want to be as good a partner as we can and try to incentivize and motivate people to develop these areas,” Ferguson said. “If we find something that needs fixing, I think we will be able to take care of it.”
