Housing Update: Council will deliver Upzone!

They said YES! The City Council heard the motion to upzone 120/130 NE Knott St. on March 3rd, and scheduled the required second hearing promptly on March 10th.

This request is urgent because St Philip’s application for LIFT funding is dependent on this upzone and must be submitted by the end of March.
