The proposed rezoning from CPD, Commercial Planned Development District to L-AR-O, Limited Apartment Office District will allow the conversion of an extended stay hotel into a 99-unit multi-family residential development. The site is within the Far North Area Plan boundaries, which initially recommended 'Employment Center' land uses, but the residential development proposal is considered a suitable reuse due to the site’s adjacency to other multi-unit residential developments and hotel uses.
This rezoning is important as it supports the city’s goal of providing more housing units. The proposal also fits within the existing residential and commercial development patterns, offering a sustainable reuse of the property.
