Planning staff backs East Bend downtown subdistrict; commission defers for further review
Summary
Staff recommended the creation of an East Bend Subdistrict to the downtown code to guide redevelopment east of the river; commissioners welcomed the vision but deferred the item for additional review and conditions focused on connectivity, heights and infrastructure.
Metro Planning staff presented a proposed amendment to Chapter 17.37 of the downtown code to establish an East Bend Subdistrict for an industrial East Bank site. The presentation outlined a form‑based regulating plan, a 75‑foot public greenway buffer along the river, a proposed street grid, tower spacing and floor‑plate standards, and requirements for infrastructure coordination with Metro Water, NDOT and other agencies.
