Read the motion as recorded

“Councilwoman Mosley moved to approve the conditional zoning request for the property located at 283 Merrimon Ave from Institutional (INST) and Residential Multi-Family Medium Density (RM-8) to Institutional (INST) and Institutional - Conditional Zone (INST - CZ) and find that the request is reasonable, is in the public interest, is consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan and meets the development needs of the community in that the request: 1) provides infill development in targeted growth areas; 2) promotes adaptive reuse as a means of conserving materials, history, and embodied energy in buildings; and, 3) locates surface parking areas to the rear of buildings in identified innovation districts and along transit-supportive corridors.”
