This rezoning petition transitions a 3.80-acre site from UR-2(CD) to N2-B(CD) to allow for the development of up to 53 multi-family attached units. The project includes architectural standards to ensure compatibility with surrounding single-family and multi-family developments, such as limits on building size and the inclusion of landscaped buffers with fencing. Additional commitments include the extension of Grasset Avenue and Debut Street, enhanced pedestrian infrastructure, and amenitized open spaces for community use. Although inconsistent with the 2040 Policy Map's Campus Place Type, the proposal aligns with Neighborhood 2 development standards, addressing housing diversity and access.
This rezoning promotes the development of much-needed affordable housing in an area identified as lacking access to housing opportunity, while enhancing pedestrian and community connectivity through thoughtful design and infrastructure improvements.
