KEARNEY, Neb. (AP) — The Kearney City Council has voted to rezone and annex more than five acres of land just west of the Younes Hospitality Development.

The unanimous vote came Tuesday night. The approval paves the way for developers to build a new hotel, two or three restaurants and four apartment buildings.

Mayor Stan Clouse says any development is a good sign of growth for the city.

The council also approved plans for single-family housing in southwest Kearney near Yanney Heritage Park. Fourteen single family lots will now be part of the Park View Estates subdivision.
