The Director of Community Services, Beth Kinney, sent a memo to Common Council regarding a recommendation to start the discussions to change the current CRBD zoning ordinance from the current 225% DRO to 300% FAR. The memo promotes the City’s contract planner’s view that the 300% change may be tied to downtown residential development thereby limiting the parking/traffic impact concerns which have stalled adoption of 300%.
Common Council (Sept 16th meeting) referred the matter to the Planning Board for their recommendation.
