Item 54 Postponed

In plain language — from the agenda backup

The council is holding a public hearing on whether to grant floodplain variances so a property owner at 1120 Denfield Street can convert an accessory structure into a dwelling unit. The catch is that the site sits within the 100-year floodplain of Tannehill Branch Creek, so the variances are needed to move forward. The item has no fiscal impact.
