    Rezone at about 130 North 2100 West (Airport Flight Path overlay)

    Discussed

    The petition would remove a hotel property from the Airport Flight Path Protection Overlay Influence Zone B so the building can be used as 94 units of permanent supportive housing, mainly for people age 62 and older transitioning out of homelessness. The Planning Commission forwarded a positive recommendation with a condition that a development agreement require air circulation systems providing at least 30 dB of sound attenuation in sleeping areas and 25 dB elsewhere. Members discussed freeway versus airport noise, planting trees and expediting permits. A hearing was set for Feb. 21.
