NORTH RICHLAND HILLS — The City Council on Monday night approved a major rezoning of the historic Smithfield area that it hopes will lead to a dramatic reinvention over the next generation.The council agreed unanimously to rezone 278 acres involving scores of property owners to a transit-oriented mixed-use category, eliminating the neighborhood’s existing codes of industrial, commercial and single-family.
"This is significant because it is positioning an entire neighborhood, not just a single project," said Scott Polikov, owner of the Gateway Planning Group, which helped draft the code changes.
