UPDATE: On September 21, 2020 City Council adopted the ordinance to rezone this property. This case is now closed for comment.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

An application is under review to rezone the subject properties located at 601 W Broadway and the parcel directly east of 601 W Broadway from Special District SD/Riverfront Triangle, sub-district D to CBD-4 (Central Business District)/DE-D Outer Core (Design Excellence Downtown Overlay). This rezone would result in a standard zoning district in Title 20 and may not be conditioned.

The subject property is Sub-district D within the area currently zoned Riverfront Triangle Special District (SD/Riverfront Triangle). The current zoning was applied to the Riverfront Triangle Area in 2004 as a way to implement the Riverfront Triangle Redevelopment Master Plan (RTRMP). The SD/Riverfront Triangle was approved under Title 19 and is not incorporated into Title 20. Any new standards City Council has adopted into Title 20, such as the Commercial Building Design Standards, do not apply to land zoned SD/Riverfront Triangle. All other properties in SD/Riverfront Triangle were rezoned to CBD-4 in May of 2017 with the adoption of the Fox Triangle Land Use and Development Requirements Agreement.
