The Radcliff City Council met for their second meeting of the month Tuesday.
The council approved zoning map amendments for three parcels of property located on the south side of Chandler Avenue between Jones and Waterfield streets. The properties are being rezoned from R-7 (Manufactured Homes) to R-4 (High-Density Single Family and Duplex). Council Member Jerry Brown said the owners of the property will be constructing buildings using 3D printing, and he was impressed with the process.
“I’ll tell you, these buildings are like on steroids,” Brown said. “They are just incredible, so to get these here and to see this happening, I’ll tell you, it’s a good day for Radcliff, and I’m tickled to death to see this.”
The council also approved the rezoning of 699 Blackjack Road from Residential Holding and R-2 (Low-Density Single Family Home) to just R-2. All of the zoning changes were recommended for approval by the city’s Planning Commission.
Radcliff Mayor JJ Duvall said the city conducted interviews last week for the city’s fire chief position as Jamie Henderson is stepping down after nearly 18 years. Duvall said the panel selected Tim Marsh, currently a lieutenant at the RFD, for the position.
“Tim’s been with us 25 years, I believe,” Duvall said. “Jamie has taught him everything he knows as he came up through the ranks, and so we had three good people that interviewed and they all did very good jobs, but at the end, the consensus of that group was to consider Tim for that position.”
Henderson will step down in two weeks, after which Marsh will serve as interim chief until his formal appointment by the council.
The Radcliff City Council will next meet August 11.
