At our council meeting tonight, we will be considering several items related to the East Boulder Subcommunity Plan. One of them is a code change about when and how rezoning requests will be considered in the plan area. When I read over the proposed language, I thought that the scope was possibly too broad and could be difficult to interpret by future planning boards and city councils, so I worked with Planning and Development staff and city attorney Hella Pannewig on revised language that is more specific on how to consider rezoning requests and the standards that should apply. </div> <div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </div> <div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> Here's the potential revised language of Subsection 9-2-19(g) for council consideration tonight:</div> <div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> <div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;cursor:text;clear:both;font-family:"Segoe UI", "Segoe UI Web", Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;font-size:12px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)"> <span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;font-variant-ligatures:none !important;font-size:12pt;line-height:20.5042px;font-family:"Times New Roman", "Times New Roman_EmbeddedFont", serif">(g) <span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;font-variant-ligatures:none !important;font-size:12pt;line-height:20.5042px;font-family:"Times New Roman", "Times New Roman_EmbeddedFont", serif">Additional Criteria for<span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;font-variant-ligatures:none !important;font-size:12pt;line-height:20.5042px;font-family:"Times New Roman", "Times New Roman_EmbeddedFont", serif"> Land within the East Boulder Subcommunity Plan and 55<span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;font-variant-ligatures:none !important;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:20.5042px;font-family:"Times New Roman", "Times New Roman_EmbeddedFont", serif">th<span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW101369899 BCX0" style="margin:0px;user-select:text;font-variant-ligatures:none !important;font-size:12pt;line-height:20.5042px;font-family:"Times New Roman", "Times New Roman_EmbeddedFont", serif"> and Arapahoe Station Area Plan Boundaries.
