New Guidelines

[apaladin]

Did I hear right? A proposal for city development that got first approval limits buildings to 2-5 stories downtown and 1-3 stories in the west end? That's what was said on channel 4 tonight. Either they said it wrong or heard it wrong. Surely this can't true?

I think that is just for up against the sidewalk/street. The setback can be taller and approved with exception like ONE phase 2. You can read the entire document here: https://m.box.com/shared_item/https%3A%2F%2Fdesignworkshop.app.box.com%2Fs%2Fla2ckddrux6l52ivjya9wbw5jen1kb9s
