The Jacksonville City Council has approved the rezoning of approximately 0.40 acres at 1665 9th Street West and 1910 Grunthal Street from Residential Low Density-60 (RLD-60) to Residential Medium Density-B (RMD-B). This rezoning supports increased residential density to accommodate multifamily and workforce housing. The amendment aligns with Jacksonville’s long-term housing strategy and enhances the availability of diverse housing options in District 7. The rezoning was approved alongside a Small-Scale Land Use Amendment (L-6008-24C) to maintain consistency with the city's comprehensive land use plan.
This rezoning facilitates the development of higher-density residential housing in an area previously designated for low-density use. It supports workforce housing initiatives and provides additional housing opportunities in a growing neighborhood.
