“Councilwoman Kilgore moved to approve the conditional zoning request for the properties located at 100, 54, and 99999 Woodland Dr from Residential Multi-Family Medium Density (RM-8) to Residential Expansion - Conditional Zone (RES EXP - CZ) with an amendment to the conditions to add two vehicle charging stations, and find that the request is reasonable, is in the public interest, is consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan and meets the development needs of the community in that the request: 1) prioritizes greater densities of development overall, throughout the city as appropriate; 2) increases the housing supply in existing residential neighborhoods at greater densities and diversity in building types; and, 3) provides contextually appropriate infill development and a variety of housing types.”
