Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />DATE: May 2, 2015 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: Jill Hutmacher, Community Development Director <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Rice Creek Commons (TCAAP) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The City Council scheduled a special work session for Saturday, May 2, 2015, to discuss the <br />draft TCAAP Redevelopment Plan and provide direction to staff on remaining changes to the <br />draft TRC. <br /> <br />At the April 27, 2015, City Council work session, Councilmember McClung asked how the <br />February 24, 2015, land use plan would need to be adjusted to allow an actual residential built <br />yield of 1,450 units. In order to accomplish that goal, staff would recommend the following: <br />1. Adjust maximum density in the NB-1 Subdistrict to 2.75 units per acre. <br />2. Decrease size of the NB-1 Subdistrict in the Creek Neighborhood to 10 acres (28 units). <br />This is consistent with the recommendation from Mary Bujold, Maxfield Research, in the <br />memo dated March 31, 2015. <br />3. Adopt the Town Center layout for Fit Test #2 which allocates an additional 4.9 acres to <br />the commercial area and the green space along the pedestrian corridor. Retain 17 acres <br />(680 units) of multi-family zoning as included in the February 24, 2015 land use plan. <br />Combine the NT-1 and NT-2 Districts with a maximum density of 12 units per acre for <br />remaining acreage in the Town Center District (391 units). <br />4. Allow the location of subdistricts in the Hill and Creek Neighborhoods to be moved <br />provided that the entire neighborhood is platted. <br />5. Allow larger block sizes provided that mid-block pedestrian connections are created. <br /> <br />The changes above would allow a maximum “paper” density of 1,514 units. Actual built unit <br />yield would likely be in the range of 1,347 (89% efficiency) to 1,438 (95% efficiency). <br /> <br />Items 4 and 5 above do not increase density, but would allow a more efficient design with <br />respect to infrastructure and lot layout. While achieving the allowed maximum density is <br />unlikely, items 4 and 5 would allow efficiency to improve to closer to 95%. Staff strongly <br />recommends that items 4 and 5 be included in the TRC along with the land use plan that is <br />ultimately approved by the City Council. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br />
