Council voted unanimously to adopt edits to the corridor mixed‑use (CMU) district ordinance — aligning height and lot‑coverage language with R‑6 provisions and increasing a referenced lot‑coverage maximum to 80% where applicable.

The council adopted an ordinance Oct. 19 amending mixed‑use (CMU) zoning language to resolve inconsistencies with the R‑6 district. Travis Tanner, director of Development Services, summarized four primary edits: clarifying additional height language for chimneys and similar features, removing SUP‑based height increases, eliminating an inapplicable front‑height setback plane, and adjusting lot‑coverage language (changed to 80% from 75% for consistency with R‑6 rules).
