Item 92 Results pendingunofficial

Approve an ordinance amending Ordinance No. 20251023-063, which concerns the Downtown Density Bonus Program, to change when the exhibits adopted in the ordinance can be applied to applications that seek bonus area under Section 25-2-586 (Downtown Density Bonus Program) and to modify the date when the City Manager is directed to return to City Council with a change to the maximum base height for Central Business District (CBD) zoning district. Funding: This item has no fiscal impact.

This item tweaks an earlier ordinance governing the Downtown Density Bonus Program — the system that lets developers build bigger in exchange for community benefits. Specifically, it changes the timing for when the updated rules apply to projects seeking bonus square footage, and it pushes the date when the City Manager must come back to Council with proposed changes to the maximum base height in the Central Business District. The update has no fiscal impact.
