A major accomplishment for Churchville and Orchard Knob residents was winning City Council approval for rezoning their neighborhoods from R-2/R-3 (apartments) to R-1 (single family). The City Council action was not only a "policy win" for residents, but more importantly affirmed the hard work of residents to improve the image and conditions of their neighborhood. One Association President noted, "this action affirms what we have always known about our community, that our neighborhood is a safe and attractive place to live." With this zoning change in place, each neighborhood will be in a stronger position to attract positive investment and homebuyer activity, while minimizing the threat of slumlord activity.
