Recommendation
It is requested that the Planning and Zoning Board conduct a public hearing to consider removal of a BDP (Binding Development Plan), in an RU-2-12 (Medium Density Multi-Family Residential) zoning classification.

The character of the area is mostly multi-family residential use with supportive commercial establishments servicing the area. The adjacent lots within this block all carry the same RU-2-12 with BDP restrictions.
