The R-3G, Multiple Family Residential Garden Apartment District was originally adopted in August 1968. This district was intended for medium density residential uses including single-family homes, two-family homes, and garden apartments. These structures were limited to a maximum height of 35 feet. The R-3G District was repealed in November 2009 with the adoption of a new zoning ordinance. At that time, properties zoned R-3G were intended to be rezoned to R-3, which was the most similar zoning district.

City staff were working on updates to the Public GIS map when they noticed that several properties in the community were still zoned R-3G. At this time, City staff is bringing these items to Planning Commission and City Council to correct this mistake. If not corrected, these properties would not be able to be developed on by property owners. This is intended to bring these properties into compliance with current zoning regulations to support any future plans of the property owners.

The Hastings City Planning Commission will hold a public hearing to consider an Ordinance to change the zoning and to amend the Official Zoning District Map for 39 properties in the City of Hastings from “R-3G, Multiple Family Residential Garden Apartment District” to “R-3, Multiple Family Residential District”.

Said matter will be held on the 17th day of June 2025 at 4:00 P.M., at the Hastings Municipal Airport, 3300 West 12th Street, Hastings, Nebraska, at which time all persons interested may be heard. The City of Hastings City Council will consider the case at a public hearing on Monday, July 14, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. Both meetings will be held in the Hastings Municipal Airport, 3300 West 12th Street, Hastings, Nebraska 68901.
