Commission backs higher‑density map change tied to Project Focus housing plan; one commissioner objects

Oct 13, 2026

The commission voted 5–1 to find HCCPA 26‑22 (10610 Davis Road/Cricket Lane) consistent with the comprehensive plan, clearing the way for a residential‑16 land‑use designation proponents say will enable housing and services for people with developmental disabilities; a commissioner voiced concern about the jump in intensity and transit access.

The full story

Willow Mickey, planning commission staff, presented HCCPA 26‑22, a privately initiated small‑scale amendment covering about 13.8 acres at 10610 Davis Road and Cricket Lane. Mickey said the request would change the site from Res 6/Res 12 to Res 16 — allowing consideration of up to 220 dwelling units and increasing nonresidential square footage potential. Staff found the proposal consistent with multiple comprehensive‑plan objectives, including community plan housing goals and compatibility policies.
