6th Cycle Housing Element adoption
The fourth draft housing element went to the state March 4, with a public hearing set for March 31 and council action April 14. Some council members are uneasy about forced rezoning and one floated a sphere-of-influence fix.
Rezoning of the MID pasture at 0 Roselle Avenue
Residents object to the Planning Commission's approval rezoning the horse pasture at Roselle Avenue and Glow Road from civic use to high-density housing, citing traffic, loss of neighborhood character, and a community petition with 400+ signatures. The item is expected before the council April 28 or in May.
