Ordinance 26-034-O — 230-Acre Parcel Voter-Approval Initiative

Description

A companion initiative ordinance would bar rezoning the 230-acre upper parcel from park/open-space/conservation to any development classification without voter approval. First read only.

Impact summary

Most of the former golf course would effectively require a citywide vote before any future development plan could move forward.
