The development looked to receive a zoning reclassification, changing the zoning from an RS-3 residential single-unit, for detached houses, to RM-4.5, residential multi-unit district. This reclassification was recently approved during the committee meeting and permits the construction of this new development.

An existing two-story frame, multi-unit residence and a two-story frame multi-unit coach house will both need to be demolished before construction begins. Permits for the demolition of those structures have been filed, but have yet to be approved and issued. No official timeline has been announced for the development.
