Details
Disclosure of interest forms were filed for Int. 362 (and Int. 356) at the 2026-10-20 meeting.
Public hearing held with no speakers on either rezoning. Int. 361 passed; Int. 362 passed per the worksheet, with the President recused and one abstention.
Both passed committee. Int. 361 moves 30 Elmerston Road from R-1 to C-2 so that Harbor House of Rochester can house families of hospital patients; staff said it is not spot zoning because it ties into the adjacent mixed-use district. Int. 362 covers the vacant School No. 25 site, to allow multifamily conversion and new units across the street; a recent fire there does not change the plan. Hearings were set for October 15 at 6 PM.
