Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting - February 25, 2026

The City of Flagstaff Planning and Zoning Commission held a meeting on February 25, 2026, primarily focused on a public hearing for a direct ordinance zoning map amendment concerning the Miltown development project. The project proposes amending a 2018 site plan to reduce residential units from 348 to 265, decrease bedroom counts by 56%, and shift from a rooming and boarding facility to a multifamily residential development with commercial components including drive-thrus and retail pads. The development emphasizes sustainability, multimodal transportation, and affordable housing commitments without incentives, with a 10-year maximum household income limit at 120% AMI. Staff recommended approval subject to conditions, and the commission discussed parking demand studies, resource protection overlays, and architectural design. The motion to forward the request to city council with approval passed 4-2-1. Additionally, the commission selected a new representative for the water commission due to a resignation.
