Zoning Map Amendment for 10th East Senior Center at Approximately 237 S & 239 S 1000 East– Mayor Erin Mendenhall has initiated a petition to rezone the city- owned properties at the above listed addresses. The properties are currently split zoned, with portions of the properties zoned R-2 (Single- and Two-Family Residential District), SR-3 (Special Development Pattern Residential District), and PL (Public Lands District). The zoning amendment would amend the zoning for the properties to be entirely PL (Public Lands District). The purpose of the amendment is to zone the properties with a district that aligns with and supports the public uses on the properties. Although the properties are being proposed for the PL zoning district, consideration may be given to rezoning the properties to another zoning district with similar characteristics.
