RZNE-0014-2026 no-net-loss rezoning

Speaking for the Kennedy Commission, asked the city to add a 20% affordability requirement in the overlay zones and questioned the legality of the overlays and the mixed-use designation of Site N.

Chair of Welcoming Neighbors Home; concerned the city is giving away leverage by allowing high-density by-right housing without requiring affordability, and questioned housing next to the freeway.

Argued 30 units/acre doesn't pencil for for-sale product and asked the density range be amended to 20-80 units per acre.

Executive Director of the Kennedy Commission; argued the proposal repeats past mistakes by upzoning without capturing affordable units, warning the city will face no-net-loss again in a few years.
