    Highlands Landing North: future land use change and rezone of 14.07 acres to R-3-8 and SC-2

    Denied · 3-4

    Peterson Development's Jeff Seaman presented a concept plan of 67 single-family units at 5.99 units per acre, said parks and open space would be well represented and offered a disclosure with each purchase agreement. The land was designated very low density residential, parks and open space, and community commercial. Staff described protections including the Balanced Housing Ordinance, a three-year reversion clause and a cap on units. Residents spoke in a hearing from 8:17 to 8:29 p.m., raising concerns about density and an earlier retirement-housing approval. Chair Wignall and Council Members Whitelock, Harris and Lamb voted not to approve, citing density and concern about loopholes; Council Member Jacob said his vote against the denial motion was not support for the application and more work was needed.
