Gateway Mixed Use (GMU) Zone Code Amendment (CMCA 2026-01)
Description
The council adopted a code amendment for the Gateway Mixed Use zone that bans new drive-throughs and auto-oriented businesses, caps single-tenant buildings at 15,000 square feet, and sets minimum housing densities — while letting existing businesses like Panda Express and Burger King continue.
Impact summary
The Fred Meyer-area corridor is now steered toward walkable, mixed-use development with housing instead of more fast food and gas stations — a big deal for how that area feels and develops over the next decades.
