Plan Commission refers proposed 163‑unit Roth/Huxley project to July 13 for Urban Design review
Summary
The Madison Plan Commission on June 1, 2026, referred three items — a rezoning for 1201 Huxley, a conditional‑use request for two four‑story residential buildings totaling 163 units, and an approving certified survey map for OM Land LLC — to July 13 to allow the Urban Design Commission to review the proposals.
The Madison Plan Commission voted on June 1, 2026, to refer three related items to its July 13 meeting so the Urban Design Commission can review and make a recommendation before planning staff and commissioners consider the proposals further.
The items described by staff included a proposed rezoning (Legistar 92877) to change 1201 Huxley Street from TRU1 (Traditional Residential Urban 1) to TRU2 (Traditional Residential Urban 2) in Alder District 12; a conditional‑use application (Legistar 92590) for 1910 Roth Street and 1201 Huxley Street to allow the construction of two four‑story multi‑family buildings totaling 163 units in the proposed TRU2 district; and an approving certified survey map for OM Land LLC for the same addresses (Legistar 92602).
Planning staff and commission members noted that Urban Design Commission input is required before Planning Commission consideration. As staff said, "they'll need to get a recommendation from Urban Design Commission before Planning Commission considers those items." The chair then asked for a motion to refer; the commission moved and referred the three items to the July 13 meeting.
Why it matters: The conditional‑use request would permit a high‑density, multi‑family development (163 units) in Alder District 12 — a proposal that may have neighborhood scale, design, and infrastructure implications that Urban Design's review is intended to evaluate before the Planning Commission takes final action.
Next step: The items will return to the Plan Commission on July 13, 2026, after Urban Design Commission review. Interested parties may review the Legistar records for detailed application materials and any public comments submitted in writing.
