A request would change the zoning at 311 Castillo Avenue from single-family residential with a conditional use for two dwelling units to residential mixed zoning. The property stays within the Airport Hazard Overlay District, which is a zoning layer that applies extra rules near the airport. The site covers Lots 40 and 41, Block 10, in Council District 5.

Developer

Verify what the new mixed residential zoning allows at Castillo Avenue

Applies if: You are evaluating this site or similar small infill lots for more than two units

Why now: The request moves Lots 40 and 41, Block 10, NCB 3129 from "R-4 CD AHOD" (two dwelling units) to "RM-5 AHOD", and the Zoning Commission voted 10-0 with staff recommending approval.

What to do: Compare the RM-5 allowable uses and density against the current R-4 conditional use limit of two dwelling units before committing to any multi-unit design. Also confirm what the airport hazard overlay still requires, since it carries over unchanged and could limit what you can build.

Act before: After the next material record update

Find who is behind the Castillo Avenue rezoning request

Why now: The Zoning Commission carried the case 10-0 on 2026-09-15 as part of a combined hearing, and the council item dated 2026-10-15 shows no recorded outcome; planner Shawn Schiele is the listed contact.

What to do: Ask the Development Services Department planner for the application, applicant name and stated project purpose. The record gives no reason for dropping the two-unit conditional use for broader mixed residential zoning, and the council has not yet acted.

Act before: After the requested records are produced

Check what multi-family zoning could mean for your Castillo Avenue block

Why now: The case would replace "R-4 CD AHOD" single-family zoning with a conditional use for two dwelling units with "RM-5 AHOD" on Lots 40 and 41, and the council item dated 2026-10-15 has no recorded outcome.

What to do: Ask the Development Services Department what housing types the new mixed residential zoning would allow on these two lots, compared with today's single-family zoning with a two-unit limit. If you have concerns, raise them with Council District 5 before the council acts.
