• Subject: PROPOSED COUNCIL-INITIATED ZONING CHANGES FOR PHASE
TWO OF THE FAR GREATER NORTHSIDE NEIGHBORHOOD
The April 13 City Council agenda will contain an M&C to initiate the zoning process for the second
phase of the Far Greater Northside neighborhood. The purpose of the proposed zoning changes is to
rezone residential and non-residential property to zoning classifications that reflect the prevailing
land use and appropriate land use policies. For your reference, the attached PowerPoint presentation
shows the future land use from the 2010 Comprehensive Plan, the current zoning, and the proposed
zoning. Council Member Espino would like to initiate rezoning of these areas in response to
neighborhood concerns.
An informational meeting for the Far Greater Northside neighborhood was held on March 17, 2010,
which was attended by area property owners and staff. At this meeting, the property owners
expressed support for the proposed zoning changes. One person in opposition has been noted to date.
Public hearings for the rezoning of these properties would be held by the Zoning Commission on
May 12, 2010, and by the City Council on June 8, 2010.
If you have any questions, please contact Dana Burghdoff, Deputy Planning and Development
Director, at 817-392-8018.
