The Habitat house that was mentioned last meeting was toured and appears to be a viable option. 5.2 Zoning Code Update Commissioner Moffat initiated the zoning code update discussion by distributing a handout he had prepared, which included proposed definitions, a use matrix, and sample SmartCode provisions. Director Serck reviewed revisions made to the proposed zoning map since the previous Plan Commission meeting. He explained that the Planned Development District (PDD) areas had been updated to reflect current land uses, industrial zoning districts should consolidated, and the code had been narrowed to a single industrial district. He also noted that additional information regarding the maritime zoning area would be forthcoming. Commissioners agreed that the inclusion of a waterfront overlay district was important. Commissioners engaged in a detailed discussion regarding zoning in the North End and considered approaches that would provide flexibility while supporting the City's long-term vision. The Commission generally agreed that a Downtown Mixed-Use designation would be appropriate for much of the North End. Commissioners also reviewed individual neighborhoods, discussing existing development patterns, density, and the most appropriate zoning districts to preserve and protect neighborhood character. 6 ADJOURNMENT Meeting adjourned at 6:44 pm Respectfully submitted by Amanda Granlund.
