Regarding Spring...how does DMU-CURE make a difference? It was zoned for 400' yet it's 434' tall.

The difference is that Spring had a height limit. The limit in DMU is 120'. They used CURE to get to 400'. That is a 333% increase. Perhaps the extra 8.5% was considered de minimus in that context. I don't know. But in CBD, since there is no height limit, it doesn't matter if the change is de minimus or de maximus. You could, for instance, double the height with the addition of a spire without affecting FAR or parking, which is the only thing the site plan is regulating in terms of the size of the project.
