For the second time in two meetings, a proposal to expand the floor area ratio in Fremontâs Tech Park has failed to move past first reading after homeowners and councilmembers raised concerns about the reliability of an updated 2013 drainage study.
The ordinance was tabled on a 6-2 vote following a motion introduced by Councilmember Brad Yerger and seconded by Councilmember Glen Ellis.
The proposal, which was first introduced during councilâs March 30 meeting, would increase the allowable floor area ratio in the Business Park district for single-story structures, two-story structures and three-story structures.
The increase would allow for larger building footprints while keeping setbacks and building height requirements the same.
