The City will host a Zoning Discussion for Portage Street on Thursday, December 19 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at City View in the Square (710 Collins Street) to discuss potential zoning updates along Portage Street.
This meeting will be held in a discussion format and will focus on the area of Portage Street from around Washington Square to Crosstown Parkway. Both the Master Plan and Edison Neighborhood Plan have called for zoning changes along Portage Street, specifically the changes being discussed aim to support the desire for zoning to allow mixed use, walkable development along the Portage Street Corridor. Additional goals are to support a wide range of uses, to allow for development on existing lot sizes, to removes barriers for housing development, and to allow for a variety of housing to support affordability.
When arriving at the event, attendees can park in City View in the Square’s visitor parking or the Washington Square City lot. For questions, please contact Christina Anderson at andersonc@kalamazoocity.org
