Public Hearing on Rezoning for Residences
on 12th and 13th Avenues
Monday, October 25th, 7:00 p.m.


The rezoning application would permit the construction of seventeen cellar-and-four-story, four-family dwellings (sixty-eight units, the same number as the ) in what's now an M2-1 zoning district on a former railroad right of way. M2-1 zoning regulations prohibit the property from being used for residences.
