A request to rezone the property at 1928 North Saint Mary's Street from General Commercial Nonalcoholic Sales to High Intensity Infill Development Zone, which would allow up to 185 housing units per acre along with uses permitted in the C-2 Commercial District. The site stays within the North St. Mary's Street Urban Corridor Overlay and Airport Hazard Overlay Districts, and the request is tied to a related plan amendment (PA-2026-11600052).

Attorney

Obtain plan amendment record tied to infill rezoning

Why now: The ordinance in the 2026-09-17 council item lists PA-2026-11600052 as associated and recommendation is 'pending Plan Amendment,' while the council result is not in these records.

What to do: Pull the plan amendment file and the council ordinance text to determine whether the rezoning can take effect independent of the amendment. Ask whether the 'pending Plan Amendment' language creates a sequencing requirement that clients should track.

Act before: After the next material record update

Confirm plan amendment status before relying on high-density infill rezoning

Why now: Council's 2026-09-17 item states staff and the Zoning Commission (10-0 on 2026-08-18) recommend approval 'pending Plan Amendment' PA-2026-11600052, and the council result is not in these records.

What to do: Check whether the companion plan amendment has been resolved before committing design or financing to 185 units per acre. The rezoning is recommended only conditionally, so the density is not secure until that amendment moves with it.

Act before: After the next material record update

Ask who applied for 185-unit rezoning on North Saint Mary's

Why now: The case went through a unanimous 10-0 Zoning Commission vote on 2026-08-18 and appeared again at City Council on 2026-09-17, yet neither record names the applicant or the proposed project.

What to do: Identify the applicant and owner of Lot 8, Block 2, NCB 1755 at 1928 North Saint Mary's Street, and ask how many housing units the 185 units per acre cap could allow on the lot. The public listing names only the planner, not the applicant or planned project.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
