St. Vincent de Paul Affordable Housing Rezone (FLUM-84)
Description
A request to change a 0.43-acre vacant lot from residential medium (RM) to planned redevelopment mixed use (PR-MU) and from NSM-1 to CCS-1 zoning to allow roughly 32 affordable one-bedroom apartments for St. Vincent de Paul. The council split 4-4, killing it over Live Local Act density risk and commercial creep into the residential block.
Impact summary
The City Council denied it on Oct 15, 2026.
Neighbors feared up to 82 units/acre under Live Local, commercial uses, parking strain and stormwater impacts; supporters noted the site fits the established US 19 corridor pattern.
