City Commissioners,
I support Commissioner Madgic suggestion that the city impose a temporary 6 month
moratorium on the development of large-scale (35,000 sq ft or larger) buildings within the
Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District (NCOD). Recently I have commented on possible
changes in the NCOD since downtown neighborhoods included in this districts. Several
neighborhoods have requested changes to the Unified Development Code (UDC) that would
affect their neighborhoods. Temporarily halting new development applications within the
NCOD would allow more time for the following:
Consider development already approved
Develop guidelines in the UDC and NCOD to protect mature trees
Develop zone transition tools to include gradual transitions in building size and height
between existing small buildings and newer building, especially in older neighborhoods.
Other issues of concern relative to the UDC
