Planning staff recommends rezoning at NW corner of West Newton and North Union; no detailed development proposed
Summary
A rezoning application (Z7808) to change property from RS-3 to RM-2 at the northwest corner of West Newton Street and North Union Avenue was presented; the Planning Commission recommended approval unanimously, and no specific development proposal was submitted.
The UED committee reviewed rezoning application Z7808, a request to rezone property at the northwest corner of West Newton Street and North Union Avenue from RS-3 (single-family) to RM-2 (multifamily). Planning staff said the area contains a mix of zones and two nearby RM-2 parcels that have been approved recently; the parcel currently has a house and possible greenhouses on it.
Susan, a planning office staff member, told the committee there was no developer-proposed site plan attached to the rezoning request and that the applicant, Craig Immel, had not specified the form of future development. "I don't think he knows exactly what type of housing yet," Susan said, describing possible townhomes or a small apartment complex as examples of RM-2-allowed uses. She said the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval.
Councilors asked few questions during the brief discussion. The transcript does not record a committee vote or final council action on the rezoning; Planning Commission recommendation and notice of the application were the substantive items recorded.
