DeKALB – Although DeKalb School District 428 has withdrawn a proposal to rezone property it intends to swap with homebuilder ShoDeen Construction, the land swap plan is still on track, officials said Tuesday.

A public hearing on rezoning part of Kiwanis Park for commercial use scheduled for the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission meeting today was canceled after the school district withdrew the petition Monday.

District 428 Superintendent Jim Briscoe said the district had given ShoDeen permission to see how the land, located south of Huntley Middle School and west of the intersection of Fourth Street and Fairview Drive, could be zoned. That will not happen for the foreseeable future, Briscoe said, in part because district officials do not want people to think the developer already owns the land.
