Summary

The council gave second readings and final (0.333) readings to several zoning-overlay amendments and approved the Inclusionary Zoning ordinance after required advertising; votes were recorded (13 in favor).

The Ordinances and Rules Committee brought forward a slate of zoning amendments and overlay-district map changes affecting residential and commercial parcels, including RCI overlay districts for several developers and a zoning amendment for 495 Lincoln Street (first reading).

Councilors voted to give matters second and final readings where the advertising window had closed; roll calls were recorded with 13 in favor when the council approved multiple amendments. The council also completed the final reading and adopted the Inclusionary Zoning (Affordable Housing Zoning Amendment) ordinance after confirming advertising requirements had been satisfied.

A late-filed attorney letter allowed CPLS Development LLC to withdraw a separate zone-change petition for 95 Lincoln Street without prejudice; the council granted leave to withdraw and noted the applicant anticipates returning in the fall. The council approved the corrected CPC appropriation orders and related map changes as part of the session’s ordinances and rules actions.
