The following are comments directed to the Planning Board with regard to the Draft
Community Plan:
(Single Family Housing)
Pg 16 N-1.3 Think this should be eliminated or rewritten. The goal is not to
eliminate single family housing but to design it into the appropriate
developments which creates a neighborhood with diverse housing types. If
you could choose what type of housing you want to live in what would it be? I
would guess most people desire a single family house when they can afford it,
thus why would our goal be to eliminate that.
Pg 41 1. Urban Neighborhood – I like the title of this zoning and how it’s used except
that it is written to eliminate single family housing. Single family housing is a
huge market and the city should not turn its back on it. It is the most desired
type of housing and should be stated as such in this document. The description
on this page does not support any R-1, R-2 or R-3 but these are listed as zoning
under this designation. At the same time it might be appropriate that the UDC
allow some commercial uses within R-1, R-2 & R-3 to support the overall
goals of diverse neighborhoods.
