redevelopment
Plans to reuse old sites, balancing new buildings, open space, and traffic.
Watch for any written, repeatable rules coming out of the right-of-way discussion (sidewalk access, parking, traffic control) and for clear next steps on the Hamilton property’s concept shortlist and any selling city land plan.
Typically discussed at Hamilton Property Community Visioning Process Phase 2. Check back when the next agenda is published.
The Hamilton property redevelopment process is now at the point where the group is ranking development concepts, deciding how much land stays open space, and sketching layouts tied to selling city land. These choices tend to narrow the real options, even when nothing is formally voted on yet.
