550 S 8th Street - Apartments - Major Design Review, Density Bonus and Rezoning Application
NEW OPTIONAL SITE PLAN LOCATION ADDED.
UPDATE: The Town appreciates all your comments and based on input received regarding the Pagosa South Park project location, we have worked with our design team for an optional site location that reduces the foot print impact to the park. Please see the Option A (the original proposed site plan at the corner of Apache and S 8th Streets) and Option B (new option located along the 7/8 Alley in the underutilized NE corner of the park property) in the Documents section of this page.
We intend to present the Pagosa South Park project and the location option at the April 12, 2022 Planning Commission meeting, strictly as in introduction to the project, and will defer any Planning Commission decisions until their April 26, 2022 meeting.
