55-unit multifamily housing behind Johnson School

SCAP wanted a special use permit for a four-phase, 55-unit development (10 affordable, 45 market-rate) on 11.4 acres behind the old I. Ellijah Johnson School. Neighbors packed the hearing to testify about flooding, crime, traffic and property values, and the council unanimously denied the permit.
