What this means
The commission considered a plan for about 4.9 acres at the northwest corner of Maze Boulevard and Carpenter Road, including an annexation request, a land use change for about 1.71 acres, and a pinpoint plan for development at 1609–1617 Maze Boulevard. The proposed project included an event center of 8,106 square feet, 112 parking spaces, and two new dwelling units. The commission did not approve the recommendations, so the proposal did not move forward from this meeting. The commission also voted to continue one item to a date uncertain, but the minutes do not say what that item was.
