    Denied · 5-0

    The request would allow a 46-lot subdivision. Staff recommended denial and the Planning Commission's findings cited violation of prior compromise agreements. Many residents spoke on both sides; opponents cited a 2017 agreement, while proponent Craig Champlin cited housing needs and housing for people 55 and older. Mayor Daines urged honoring the prior agreement and Chair Amy Anderson said her vote reflected trust in city commitments. The council denied the ordinance unanimously.

    Workshop: Hillcrest rezone, about 8.37 acres near 1250 North 1300 East, NR-4 to NR-6 (Ordinance 20-06)

    Discussed

    The proposal, with proponent Nic Porter, would rezone about 8.37 acres for a 46-lot subdivision. Staff recommended denial, citing an earlier neighborhood agreement, street standards and connectivity. The minutes give conflicting accounts of the Planning Commission's February 27 vote, once as a recommendation to deny 5-1. Mayor Daines and Council Member Simmonds supported honoring the earlier agreement, and Vice Chair Jensen asked about a transition in lot size.
