Attn city commission and community development board,
I've been spending a lot of time with the proposed new zoning map and I'm concerned about
the map changes that were made to the NCOD for the proposed new UDC.
Maybe nothing is finalized, but the area included in the NCOD was changed along 7th Avebetween Main and Peach. It's been moved 2 blocks east to end at 5th.
WHY?
This leaves out the Sapphire motel and some other important historical structures. The
Sapphire motel was actually recognized with a historic preservation award this past May. Theneighborhood homes that have now been left out have significant historical value as well
because they typify the post war bungalow, the Mid Century Modern style that represented adeparture from the Art Deco, Arts and Crafts style homes built in the decades preceding them.
When the new map is adopted we need to put the NCOD back to its original territory if not
actually expand it.
Thanks,
