Questions about Missing Middle Housing:

  • Should duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and other attached housing types be permitted on corner lots and along collectors in existing neighborhoods, as stated in the Comprehensive Plan?
  • How or under what conditions would these building types be appropriate? Are there certain design elements that would support compatibility, such as converting an existing single-household structure with minimal change to the exterior appearance of the structure?
  • What feedback do you have about the proposed residential use allowances throughout the city? 


Questions about Neighborhood Serving Commercial:

  • Are there certain businesses or activities that you would like to see in your neighborhood?
  • Are there certain businesses or activities that you think would have a negative impact in your neighborhood?
  • Are there operational, design, or location limitations you would like to see applied to neighborhood-serving commercial uses? For example, limiting businesses to busier streets, known as collector streets, or arterial streets, or requiring the adaptive reuse of a residential structure.
