A proposed resolution to adopt the Englewood Agro-Eco District Land Use Plan. The plan identifies future land uses for the general area within a quarter mile of the proposed Englewood Nature Trail (1.7 miles between S. 58th and S. 59th streets and Lowe and Hamilton). Initiated in the spring of 2022, the plan is based on eight guiding principles: ‘Community First;’ ‘Strength;’ ‘Health and Security;’ ‘Stabilize;’ ‘Pathways to Work and Wealth;’ ‘Farming as a Political Act;’ ‘Art rooted in Local Culture;’ and ‘Design for the Community.’ The plan includes unique goals, objectives, and zoning recommendations for six land use categories; namely, ‘Public Parks,’ ‘Agricultural Sites,’ ‘Neighborhood Commercial Centers,’ ‘Small and Local Production,’ ‘Residential,’ and ‘Mixed-Use Development.’
