Workshop: 100 North rezone from TC-2 to NR-6, Ordinance 23-35
Discussed
Planner Tanya Rice presented a request on behalf of seven owners to rezone eight parcels on about 2 acres of 100 North between 100 East and 200 East from TC-2 to NR-6. Five parcels are owner-occupied historic single-family homes, two are vacant and one is a grandfathered triplex. Staff recommended denial as in conflict with Ordinance 18-07, and the Planning Commission voted 6-0 for denial on November 9. Council Member Simmonds recused herself from the discussion. Action was set for December 5.
- Acres: about 2
- Current zone → proposed: TC-2 → NR-6

Continued · 4-0-1
The request covers eight parcels, about 2 acres, on both sides of 100 North between 100 East and 200 East. Staff recommended denial as contrary to Ordinance 18-07 and the Planning Commission voted 6-0 for denial on November 9. Reed Bolam asked for transparency and preservation of the historic homes. The council discussed the commercial zoning history (north side since the 1950s, south side since the 1980s), preservation goals and whether a downzone was needed. Council Member Simmonds recused herself from discussion and abstained in the vote. The council continued the item to January 16 as an action item with no new hearing.

Denied · 4-0
The council voted to deny the request covering eight parcels. The Planning Commission had recommended denial 6-0. Council Member Simmonds recused herself at 7:20 p.m., but the roll call as recorded still lists her as voting aye, which should be checked against the minutes. Discussion covered historic homes, the 2018 TC-2 zoning and a possible General Plan update; DeSimone suggested residents consider a homeowners association as an alternative, and the council agreed to reevaluate TC-2 in the future.
