Overview: During the engagement opportunities for the draft Focus Area Maps and Principles, the residents of the Glenn Heights (Windsor Circle) neighborhood petitioned the Town Council to remove their neighborhood from the South Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard Focus Area.

Staff evaluated the neighborhood's request and is recommending another option to respond to the neighborhood's interest in maintaining the existing neighborhood character.

* Resolution C - Assign the Small Lot Single Family Character Type to the Glenn Heights Neighborhood
* Resolution D - Rename the Townhouse etc. Character Type to Low/Medium Residential and revise the definition to include low density single family...
