Sunrise Ranch high-density rezone
Summary
A proposal to rezone 12.94 acres from medium- to high-density housing drew strong opposition from residents who say the city already has 8,850 homes in the pipeline and high vacancy rates. The item was continued at the applicant's request, so the fight isn't over.
