Empire Cos. is rethinking its approach to developing a new residential neighborhood in Harrisburg.

Voters on Tuesday turned down a plan to rezone part of the 115-acre Birdie View development, leaving the entire property designated as single-family residential zoning.

The development was to include 60 to 70 lots in its first phase, a mix of single-family homes and owner-occupied townhomes and twin homes. A future phase included leased townhomes. The development is east of Louise Avenue near Adventure Elementary.
