This rezoning petition transitions 6.8 acres from N1-A to N2-A(CD) to allow for the development of up to 70 multi-family attached residential units.

The site is well-connected to transit, including the number 29 CATS bus route, and is within proximity to Reedy Creek Nature Preserve and Greenway system. The rezoning also facilitates a place type amendment from Neighborhood 1 to Neighborhood 2 as part of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
