The zoning would be changed from office research to manufacturing research if approved by the city council. The rezoning is needed to make way for German automotive supply company Dr. Schneider Automotive Systems to develop a new facility on part of the land. Dr. Schneider says it plans to purchase 10 acres of the land to build a 59,000-sf building on the site.
