City of Centerville City Council Meeting Minutes August 14, 2024 Ms. Johnson also stated that there are over 20 single family homes zoned as M-1 or M-2 and that the means that these citizens are technically living in homes that are in non-conforming use of their property and are limited in their ability to improve or update their properties. Ms. Johnson added that we owe them the opportunity to reconsider their zoning due to the lack of development downtown, and the opportunity to improve their home. Ms. Johnson opined that the LaLonde property should have never been zoned high density; the opportunity to engage a large apartment developer should have never been an option; and the property should be preserved. Ms. Johnson further stated that the property is beautiful, and it's a beautiful representation of the importance of open space and greenery across our city and in our plans, adding that our city is in desperate need of consistency across our documentation, and we need to improve our town operations in accordance. Ms. Johnson said that tonight alone, we have a proposal that intrusive introduces yet another barometer for what's acceptable within high density. 12-30 units to 45 units and now 20 units; adding that we have to stop introducing additional inconsistencies. Ms. Johnson concluded that if the vision from these documents were to come to life she would not want to live here. Ms. Johnson asked the Council to let residents help plan together, because she really loves this town, and she thinks we can find a way to make it more beautiful together. 16.
