James Knuppe SUMMARY The revised application is for a mixed-use project that includes a two-story commercial/office building (approximately 1,822 square feet) with five attached, three- story multi-family residential units (ranging between approximately 1,988 to 2,482 square feet each) at 273 Spring Street. An earlier version of this project was considered by City Council at a public hearing on February 2, 2016 (continued from January 19, 2016).

This report contains a summary of the changes in the proposal as compared to the February 2, 2016 version reviewed by Council, as well as minor edits to the recommended conditions of approval (Attachment 1, Exhibit A) and revised plans (Attachment 1, Exhibit B). For more detailed information related to the project, please refer to the December 9, 2015 Planning Commission staff report (Attachment 2 to Attachment 3 of this report) and the previous City Council staff report (Attachment 3 of this report).
