Discussed
The Council was briefed on a request to rezone the properties from R-MU-45 Residential/Mixed Use to RO Residential/Office to allow added height to replace a three-level noncomplying parking garage. The Planning Commission forwarded a negative recommendation. The applicant's representatives described the garage as unusable and unsafe, said the project would add jobs and activate Denver Street, and mentioned a possible development agreement. Council members asked about ground-floor activation, charging stations, design standards and next steps. Council Member Puy asked for a clear construction plan and neighbor impact plan before work begins.
