Cedar Rapids housing rezoning debates gridlock at council
Cedar Rapids residents packed the City Council chambers to oppose five rezoning requests including a 66 unit elderly housing project on Memorial Drive SE. Protesters cited size and impact on single family character while developer Thomas Hoegen defended needs for elderly housing. The council aims to vote within two weeks as other parking lot and office services rezoning proposals on Sixth Street SE and Third Ave SE drew objections and a two hour public hearing.
