Westlake Rezoning on City Council Agenda

Rezoning in a portion of Westlake is on the City Council agenda for Thursday, June 18.

Some residents are expressing concern that rezoning in the area of Center Ridge and Westwood Roads will bring increased traffic and resident inconvenience.

Here is a link to one of the agenda items of concern: https://files-backend.assets.thrillshare.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/5437/Cw/4032b328-ef83-40cc-bbd6-d5e3f5c8fd13/2026-58.pdf?disposition=inline

Here is a Letter to the Editor sent to The Villager:

“ATTENTION RESIDENTS! WE ALREADY HAVE TOO MUCH TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN WESTLAKE—WE DON”T WANT MORE!

THE CITY COUNCIL IS CONSIDERING THE FOLLOWING ORDINANCES WHICH WILL INCREASE TRAFFIC DENSITY ON CENTER RIDGE, DOVER CENTER, CLARK PARKWAY, AND WESTWOOD:

1. ORDINANCE 2026-58
2. ORDINANCE 2026-59
3. ORDINANCE 2026-60

REZONING IN THIS AREA WILL AFFECT ALL OF WESTLAKE AND IMPACT TRAFFIC AT OUR SCHOOLS, LIBRARY, AND POST OFFICE.
