Staff says Community Development Commission will review existing multifamily rezoning cases before commission decision

When commissioners asked whether a neighborhood postponement (item 6) would send the case to the Community Development Commission (CDC) first, Jonathan Tomko of Austin Planning replied that the housing department has scheduled a CDC agenda item for Oct. 13 to review existing multifamily rezoning cases that have not received final council action. "Granting this neighborhood postponement request would give this case an opportunity to be heard by that body before coming back to the planning commission and, obviously, before going to the council," Tomko said, and he referenced a council resolution adopted Apr. 23 (transcript: "resolution 20260423-039").
