RECOMMENDATIONS:

Recommended Action

COMMUNITY COUNCIL: (6-8-20) Approval; (2-10-20) Deferral.

 

PLANNING COMMISSION: (7/7/20)  Approval with Conditions.  (3-3-20) Deferral Full Cycle.

 

PLANNING STAFF: Approval with Conditions.

 

STAFF ANALYSIS:   The proposal is consistent with the 2035 Comprehensive Plan’s Town Center policies that support a high-density mix of retail, office, services and employment centers that serve several neighborhoods.  The zoning proposal will permit a use that is suitable in view of the use and development of adjacent and nearby properties.  The zoning proposal will not adversely affect the existing use or usability of adjacent or nearby property, which are either retail (the CVS store), part of the originally approved development concept (townhomes) or located approximately ten feet above the project site (the Hiawatha subdivision).  Therefore, the Department of Planning and Sustainability recommends “Approval with Conditions”. 

 

PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: (7/7/20)  Approval with Conditions, 7-0-0. G. McCoy moved and A.Atkins seconded for approval with 13 conditions recommended by Staff.  The motion was unanimous. (3/3/2020) Deferral Full Cycle 6-2-0.  G. McCoy moved and J. West seconded a motion to defer full cycle to allow time for the applicant to submit a more detailed site plan and elevations and renderings of the proposed building.

 

COMMUNITY COUNCIL VOTE/RECOMMENDATION:  (6/8/2020) Approval 7-1-0. CC5 members supported additional apartment units on the site. (2/10/2020) Deferral 7-0-0.  The Community Council Board recommended full cycle deferral to allow time for the applicant to redefine the site plan to show an amenity area and detention pond, and to submit architectural plans.
