   Continued · 7-0

   The council held a hearing on rezoning from R-1-5,000 to RMF-35 and amending the master plan from low to medium density residential for townhomes. Two speakers opposed it: one said it would raise housing costs and change the neighborhood, and the other reviewed the property's history, said the housing would not be affordable and asked the council to deny it. The council closed the hearing and deferred action.
