AN ORDINANCE amending the Seattle Comprehensive Plan to incorporate changes proposed as part of the 2016-2017 Comprehensive Plan annual amendment process.
The Report of the Planning, Planning and Zoning Committee Agenda Item five Council Bill 1190 27 amended the Seattle Comprehensive Plan to incorporate changes proposed as part of the 2016 through 2017 Comprehensive Plan. Annual Amendment Process Committee recommends the bill passes amended. So this is the committee that I chair and once a year we adopt changes to the comprehensive plan. There was a couple of amendments that were discussed in committee. One was related to making some specific changes to the description of the Chinatown International District based on the community feedback that we'd heard through the Chinatown International District zoning changes. And the second was an amendment to parks and open space elements. Councilmember O'Brien, you spent a lot of time working on that parks and open space element, and I wanted to give you the chance to speak about it, if you like. But I'm not seeing you jump for a microphone. Okay. One of the other issues that was discussed, both a lot in committee and then also again today in public comment was the issue of future land use map amendment sizes. We did some robust work there and as you may have heard during public comments, chose not to bring forward an amendment that would make a specific change to a vigilante stamp in the Beacon Hill neighborhood. There was a consensus among the committee that that was a great project, a project that all of us on committee liked and appreciated, particularly their commitment to choosing to perform through our mandatory housing affordability program. But when we did the analysis about what sort of scope changes would be required for us to then make requisite size size changes to the future land use map, that that was a precedent that maybe that change was too small of a change for us to make and dig that deep down into the future land use map. So we neglected to bring that amendment forward, although that was a project that I think all of us supported and look forward to seeing. It's future development of I'm not overstepping my bounds, but I'm looking at my colleagues and I'm not seeing any significant objection. OC Any further discussion about the comprehensive plan. I'm not seeing any great boards and it's yours. So with that, I'd move to pass Council Bill 119027 for the discussion. Okay. And ask the court to please call the roll on the passage of the bill. Flores O'BRIEN All right. So what I John Gonzalez, purple Johnson high seven in favor not opposed. The bill passes and the chair will sign it. I'd ask the court to please call to please read agenda item number six, the short title.
