Jacobs is now asking that the area be approved under a Community unit plan which Means no zone change is involved and that the density of the development would be no greater than if single family Homes were built there instead. His request has been approved by the regional planning commission and the Rural zoning Board but opposed by the homeowners and the Madeira Council and planning commission.

A the City administration and the construction management team does not find additional value or Quality in proposal no. 6 al never in proportion to the extra Cost of the proposal a Suhm said in a report to Council.
