Severs Wins First Round Toward Permit

Severs won the first round in his bid for a building permit for the middle of his house. The Plan Commission voted 4 to 0 to recommend rezoning the lot at 401 Logan St to allow multifamily housing, though objections said it amounted to spot zoning. The commission noted intent to rezone southeast area for multifamily housing and that Severs has waited long for a permit. He previously sought a four apartment permit and claimed a duplex permit was issued for the building ends. He cited signed rental contracts for four sports events this fall but no permit yet. The commission urged council action by then and recommended changing the lot to an Ro zone.
