(KHQ Right Now) The Spokane City Council unanimously passed two zoning change proposals during their meeting Monday night that could lead to more than 100 more housing units being built in the city. The proposals came after property owners asked the city for zoning changes due to the current zoning not allowing for future building plans they had for their property. One of the two zoning changes that involve residential buildings affects a lot on East Cleveland Avenue, while the other involves a group of lots on West Sinto and West Maxwell Avenues.
