This petition seeks a site plan amendment to a previously approved MUDD-O rezoning, increasing the allowable nonresidential square footage from 44,000 to 45,000 square feet and adding up to 45 multi-family residential units. Located at the intersection of Central Avenue and Morningside Drive, the site is adjacent to the proposed Morningside stop of the LYNX Gold Line. Key features include expanded sidewalks and planting strips, landscape buffers adjacent to single-family lots, and optional provisions for parking reductions. The amendment supports neighborhood-serving mixed uses while maintaining compatibility with surrounding residential areas.
This decision enhances the site’s utility and adaptability by balancing residential and commercial uses, promoting transit-oriented development, and aligning with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan’s goals for 10-Minute Neighborhoods and Neighborhood Diversity & Inclusion.
