Why are we concerned if we have the above zoning regulations?

• The developer has submitted this project and it is under review by the planning department.

• The scope, scale, height, and density is not compatible with the current character of the Normal Heights neighborhood.

• This project will adversely affect parking in the area which is already heavily impacted.

• If this project is approved, it will set a precedent for future projects.

• The city can have a lot of latitude by use of the deviation process.
