Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV20-072A

Ordinance #1898-2021, passed July 26, 2021 (CV20-072), allowed a mixed-use development with a maximum of 90 apartment units (115.4 du/AC), and a ground floor commercial space with up to 3,600 square feet and 274 square feet of seasonal patio space in the AR-3, Apartment Residential District. This ordinance updates the variances and site plan based upon minor site plan modifications from the final site compliance review. The Milo-Grogan Area Commission reviewed the requested variances and recommends approval. Staff supports reiteration of the previously approved variances into this ordinance which will replace Ordinance #1898-2021 in order to update the necessary variances for the project.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
