Omaha front page planners mull zoning and housing plans
Ottawa planners discussed rezoning a duplex heavy district to R1 or R2, amid neighbor concerns about a rental complex and upkeep. ECEAN Estates proposed 12 single family homes with assistive financing, while plans for a second Crist Auto Sales lot received cautious approval. The city also moved to broaden zoning exemptions to speed infill housing with Habitat for Humanity support. New officers were elected for the planning board, with Underwood chair and Rod Harris as secretary.
