Zoning Map Amendment
1050 W 1300 S Rezone
Petition Number: PLNPCM2023-00609
Application Type: Zoning Map Amendment
Project Location: 1050 West 1300 South
Zoning District: R-1/5,000, Single-Family Residential
Overlay District: Riparian Corridor Overlay
Council District: District 2, represented by Alejandro Puy
Mayor Mendenhall has initiated a petition to amend the zoning map for city owned property located at 1050 West 1300 South. The proposal would rezone the property from R-1/5000 – Single-Family Residential, to RMF-30 – Low Density Multi-Family Residential. The proposed amendment to the zoning map is intended to promote infill housing development goals identified in the Westside Master Plan.
The policies related to established neighborhoods identify that there is “some opportunity for incremental additions to density and minor adjustments to the development pattern within the Glendale and Poplar Grove neighborhoods” (pg. 26). The recommendation in the plan is for future housing to be compatible in terms of building height, bulk, setbacks, architecture, landscaping, and building materials and recognizes that zoning changes will be required to accomplish this.
Project Location
Located at approximately 1050 West 1300 South.
