220402 15.OrdinanceA substitute ordinance relating to the change in zoning from Detailed Planned Development known as John C. Cudahy YMCA Youth & Family Center to a new Detailed Planned Development known as Cudahy Farms for phased multi-family development on land located at 9050 North Swan Road, on the east side of North Swan Road, south of West Fairy Chasm Drive, in the 9th Aldermanic District.

Minutes note: Appearing: Terrell Walter, Royal Capital Group Tess Lacey, Engberg Anderson Architects Kevin Newell, Royal Capital Group A presentation was given. Ald. Larresa Taylor, 9th Ald. Dist., testified wanting to hold review of the change of zoning for the developer to address concerns from residents (as expressed at a recent aldermanic office community meeting) and herself regarding environmental impacts, outdoor parking, hotspot activity across the street on Swan Rd., location being inviting for people to gain unauthorized access, moving the entranceway away from Swan Rd. to Fairy Chasm Dr. to reduce unauthorized access, keeping the development gated and closed from the public, and questionable controlled community programming. Her office held a community meeting on July 13, 2023. Public testimony in opposition: Nicole Hartley, area resident, testified with concerns on the general area experiencing business vacancies and inadequate landscaping/streetscaping maintenance, the development having too many units and adding too much density in the area, loss of natural habitats, lack of community meetings prior to the most recent one, and lack of adequate/consistent noticing to all area residents regarding community meetings. Public testimony in support: Robin Palm, Washington Heights resident and urban planner, testified that the area was in demand of higher density and the development would be beneficial for the community. Member Washington moved conditional approval, seconded by member Moody. (Prevailed 5-1) No - Nemec Conditions: 1.
