Zoning and Analysis
The applicant filed a rezoning petition with the City on August 6, 1999 requesting initial zoning
from CSU land to MMN - Medium Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood District.
The purpose of the MMN zoning district (Section 4.5 of the Land Use Code) is to be a setting for
concentrated housing within easy walking distance of transit and a commercial district, and to form
a transition and a link between surrounding neighborhoods and the commercial core. This site is
located between existing -highly concentrated housing (Fort Ram Village) and an existing
commercial district (Campus West), and would satisfy the purposes of the MMN zoning district.
Rezoning the property to MMN would extend the MMN district that exists to the north and west.
The proposed zoning is also consistent with the City's adopted Structure Plan, a part of the
Comprehensive Plan.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
On October 21, 1999, the Planning and Zoning Board, by a vote of 6-0, recommended that the
Council approve the request for a change of zoning from unzoned CSU property to MMN - Medium
Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood Zoning District.
