The proposed master plan and zoning amendment are subject to the following applications:
- Zoning Map Amendment –additional height is needed from what is allowed in the current zoning district, Urban Neighborhood Station – Transition (TSA-UN-T), with a maximum height of 50 feet. The applicant is requesting to change the zoning to Urban Neighborhood Station – Core (TSA-UN-C) which would allow a maximum height of 75 feet. Case number PLNPCM2021-01202
