Rezoning for ex-Pepsin site approved in Monticello

MONTICELLO – The city council is hoping a new zoning label will help create redevelopment interest in the former Pepsin property.

In a 6-0 vote, the council approved the rezoning of the Pepsin site from industrial zoning to a business zone. Council member Tim Hayes abstained. The property is located two blocks east of the downtown square. It is the former location of Sterling Drug Inc.
