SUMMARY OF COMMISSION ACTION
On May 22, 2017, the Planning Commission considered this request to rezone 63 contiguous lots from R-1 to the R-1/S zoning designation to limit homes in that area to single stories. The rezoning would only affect the 63 properties included in the application area, and would prohibit future two-story homes and additions in the rezone area.

Four individuals spoke in favor of the rezoning (no one spoke in opposition). The Planning Commission voted 5-2 to recommend the City Council approve the rezoning request

Minutes of the Planning Commission meeting of May 22, 2017 are in Attachment 9.
