Triangle plan adopted; east side of Adams excepted

The Birmingham City Commission Monday night adopted the Triangle District Master Plan and enacted a series of ordinances that create an overlay zoning district and give the plan the force of law.

Action on a portion of the plan dealing with land east of Adams was postponed pending further input from residents. The commission directed the Planning Board to hold further hearings -- with direct notice to all property owners between Adams, Eton, Lincoln and Maple -- on long-term plans for Adams Square and the first 120 feet east of Adams, south of Adams Square.
