Flagstaff City Council directed staff to move forward with work that could lead to a reduction in building heights in several areas of Flagstaff last week.
The new neighborhood commercial zone that city staff is developing would lower maximum building heights from 60 feet to 45 feet, or about three stories.
Once the zone is created, the city could then reclassify the Southside and Sunnyside neighborhoods and an area north of downtown within the new community commercial zone, thus lowering building height in those areas.
