ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION—JANUARY 20, 2015 7 <br /> Councilmember Holden believed that the County did not want senior housing in the Town <br /> Center, which would mean it would have to be located in Neighborhood Transition. <br /> Community Development Director Hutmacher explained the benefits of a mix of inter- <br /> generational housing on TCAAP as this would allow the City's population to age in place without <br /> having to move out of the community. She anticipated that higher density housing products, such <br /> as apartment complexes, would have to be located in the Town Center. <br /> Councilmember McClung was in favor of keeping senior housing in NT and NT2. <br /> Mayor Grant agreed with this recommendation. <br /> Chapters 4 and 5, TCAAP Redevelopment Code <br /> Community Development Director Hutmacher indicated that City Council comments and <br /> direction on Chapters 4 and 5 of the TCAAP zoning have been incorporated. Based on the City's <br /> schedule for approval of the TRC, this January 20th work session will be the last opportunity for <br /> the City Council to review Chapters 4 and 5 prior to presentation of the full draft TRC on <br /> February 2, 2015. <br /> Community Development Director Hutmacher noted that the key changes to Chapters 4 and 5 <br /> since the last City Council review are: <br /> • Addition of definitions clarifying right-of-way, property line, setbacks, and gross density. <br /> • Addition of definitions for low, medium, and high density development with density <br /> parameters. Density requirements will also be incorporated into Chapter 6 prior to <br /> February 2. <br /> • Addition of residential subzones to Table 5.1. <br /> • Changes to Table 5.2 for consistency to Table 5.1. <br /> Councilmember Woodburn discussed several items of concern with staff. <br /> Councilmember Holden indicated that she would speak with Community Development Director <br /> Hutmacher further regarding her concerns. <br /> 2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES <br /> Councilmember Holden asked if staff would be representing the City at an upcoming Rotary <br /> event. <br /> City Planner Streff commented that he would be representing the City at this event. He stated <br /> that he would email the Council with further information on the Rotary Variety Night event <br /> scheduled for Sunday, January 31St. He explained that he had additional tickets if any <br /> Councilmembers wanted to attend. <br /> ADJOURN <br />
