Bella Vista Eyes Rezoning to Encourage Small Business Growth
Bella Vista, AR – The Bella Vista City Council recently reviewed rezoning proposals to support local businesses by converting three residential properties into neighborhood commercial districts. The proposed changes align with the city’s long-term vision for balanced growth, providing small business owners with new opportunities while maintaining community character.
Rezoning for Economic Development
The properties under consideration for rezoning include:
County Parcel No. 16-70260-003
County Parcel No. 16-03465-000
A portion of County Parcel No. 16-18693-000
Each property, currently zoned as R-1 (Residential Single-Family), would be reclassified as C-1 (Neighborhood Commercial), allowing for businesses that serve Bella Vista’s residential neighborhoods. The council emphasized that these changes could stimulate local economic activity while ensuring that new commercial developments harmonize with existing residential areas
