From UHNA NPU-D Rep Eva Nason;
It has been my intention to let my neighbors know that the hoped-for 2 year pause in a property owner being able to apply to rezone a property again after having done so and lost, possibly does not apply to the situation of a zoning application having been "filed" by the City Council rather than the application having been voted down by the Zoning Review Board (ZRB). This was the situation for the rezoning application for 1692 Springer St. The ZRB voted to approve the application in spite of our NPU-D vote of 98-6 against it. When we protested the ZRB vote to the City Council and our Council member, Dustin Hillis, the City Council did what it can do. That is, it did not proceed in the next step necessary in order for an application to become legal, which is give its approval of the application. Instead, the Council "filed" the application. This may mean that we, as a neighborhood, need to stay vigilant as to any future attempts to change the status of the property at 1692 Springer. I have asked, but have not received, a definitive answer as to possible future occurances. It is my hope that the new construction going up on the adjoining Defoor lots will eventually play a role in helping to favorably resolve issues with this Springer property. Comments are closed.
