The City Council unanimously approved a quasi‑judicial site plan for a nine‑story, approximately 100‑foot residential building with 35 units and an integrated two‑story parking garage located near Northeast 9th Avenue and Northeast 131st Street.
Debbie Love, the city’s development services director, summarized prior approvals and conditions, noting the Development Review Committee had approved the project with conditions including construction and maintenance of a six‑foot sidewalk along both street frontages and undergrounding of utilities. She said the project had previously received a conditional use permit in April and that developers must apply for building permits within 18 months of site plan approval.
Why it matters: Staff and council described the project as one of the last remaining projects under the former NRO and said it would activate the street frontage with landscaping and design features while requiring additional stormwater retention beyond minimums.
Vote: The council approved the site plan by a recorded vote of 5–0.
Next steps: If the project proceeds, the developer will submit building permit applications and proceed with construction subject to the conditions recorded by staff.
