Changes to planned neighborhoods with shared design rules and building plans

Watch for follow-up approvals that typically lock in the on-the-ground details residents feel most (final site details like landscaping, lighting, parking layout, and traffic flow).

Typically discussed at City Council. Check back when the next agenda is published.

The City Council approved a plan change for 3000 Forest Ave that allows two 3-story apartment buildings (52 units total) on the former Hansen’s Florist site. The public hearing had zero speakers, and the vote passed 8-0. The plan described to council keeps an emergency-only gated driveway and drops some frontage landscaping at a neighbor’s request.
