From the meeting
At its November 20, 2026 meeting, the Akron City Planning Commission considered PC-2026-46-T, a proposed text change to the zoning code for a U1 Dwelling Use District. The proposal would allow up to three dwelling units on a parcel, including detached secondary dwellings, and would remove a restriction on more than one residential structure in a U1 district. Planning staff said the change would expand housing options and help redevelop vacant land, and it recommended approval.
Decision state: vote scheduled.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will City of Akron issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Akron's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
