FROM:Commissioner Ricky Arriola

SUBJECT:REFERRAL TO THE LAND USE AND SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS A CORRECTIVE TEXT AMENDMENT TO THE WASHINGTON AVENUE OVERLAY.

ANALYSIS

The City Commission adopted an ordinance in October 2019 aimed at further incentivizing development along the Washington Avenue corridor. However, Urbin, one of the firms that advocated for passage of the ordinance, has discovered that the regulations, as adopted, would not make their co-living project feasible. They have submitted a corrective text amendment for the Land Use and Sustainability Committee to review. It is attached here for discussion.
