Committee narrows but does not settle on rezoning path for R‑16/R‑90 parcels

Nov 10, 2025

The committee reviewed zoning alternatives for detached R‑16/R‑90 parcels along University Boulevard: options ranged from broad Planning Board rezoning to abutting‑only rezoning with lower heights. Staff estimated 500 parcels could be affected under one option and modeled about 700 units over 20 years under the planning board scenario.

The full story

Council staff presented three main zoning scenarios for detached residential parcels in the University Boulevard corridor and two additional staff alternatives: full rezoning per the Planning Board, a limited abutting‑only rezoning, and intermediate approaches that limit heights or permit duplexes via overlay.
