Council rezones two North 12th Street lots from residential to business use
How we attribute this: Corrected 2026-08-28: an 8-0 tally had been synthesised from the attendance roll call at [t=84] and a voice vote at [t=2465]. Neither records how any individual member voted.
Who it touches: If you live near 3317 North 12th Street or 1205 Fort Harrison Road, this changes what can legally be built on those two lots — from houses to offices — in an area that already includes heavy commercial use on Fort Harrison Road, a health clinic across 13th Street, and one neighboring house.
Terre Haute City Council approved rezoning two lots owned by Rick Lazor — 3317 North 12th Street and 1205 Fort Harrison Road — from residential (R1) to business and professional office use (C2), which the owner's attorney said clears the way for a sale to a buyer who plans to build offices there.
The Area Plan Commission had already recommended the change with conditions, and no one spoke against it either at the area plan meeting or in front of the council.
