Council rejects land-use change for three Edgewater parcels after split vote

Jan 13, 2025

A first-reading amendment to change three parcels from commercial to medium-density residential (Ordinance 2024-OD-56) failed after a 2-2 council roll call; staff and the applicant said the change would make two existing homes conforming and allow a duplex on one vacant lot.

The council considered Ordinance 2024-OD-56, which would have amended the future land-use map from commercial to medium-density residential for three parcels along Edgewater Drive to allow a proposed duplex and to resolve nonconforming residential uses. Applicant Brad Hanson identified himself as the owner and made no further remarks; staff explained the amendment would "feather" density from commercial near U.S. 1 to low-density residential inland and said it would allow two existing homes to become conforming.
