Fiscal Note
The proposed ordinance amendment increases the allowed height limit for the North Broom Street area. No additional appropriation required.
Title
Amending map in Section 28.071(2)(a) related to downtown height limits of the Madison General Ordinances to update the Downtown Height Map in the North Broom Street area. (District 4)
Body
DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS: This amendment amends the downtown height map in MGO 28.071(2)(a) to straighten the dividing line along North Broom Street between allowable six (6) stories and twelve (12) stories on the downtown height map. The previously mapped building height lines jogged to follow lot lines that existed when the map was created. A proposed development will combine the adjacent lots making the jogged line unnecessary.
