Background Information:
ZC-21-06 is associated with Zoning Cases ZC-21-07 and ZC-21-08 of which all 3 cases seek to entitle a multifamily development pursuant to the CD-1, CD-4, and CD-5 Zoning District Regulations. The 10.19 acres associated with this zoning case is intended to serve as the development’s detention area and it’s currently situated outside of the City Limits. As such, an annexation application has also been submitted and is scheduled for concurrent consideration.
