Page 2 of 17 Avenue has had some new development and redevelopment in the last 15 years. This area is marked as an area of possible redevelopment in 2040. 1. Proposal and Use: The two sites are currently developed with one vacant industrial building and associated parking lot developed over both lots. The proposal includes a lot reconfiguration that would adjust the existing lot line to the west. The Applicant is proposing to demolish the existing building and redevelop the site as follows: • Lot 1 would be for a new +/- 4,900 square foot drive-through car wash for Rocket Car Wash. • Lot 2 would be a multi-tenant building with a +/- 8,950 square foot building developed for Panera (~3,500 square feet), Pacific Dental (~3,000 square feet), and Bank of America (~2,200 square feet). The Subject Property would remain two lots and function as a single entity with shared site operations such as parking, access, snow removal, etc. as part of the Planned Unit Development (PUD). 2. Previous City Council Review The City Council discussed this project at a Work Session on April 18, 2022. Plan Evaluation A PUD proposal shall identify any requested modifications from the applicable zoning requirements as well as the reasons why the modifications would be in the public interest and would be consistent with the purpose of the underlying B-3 District. Modifications to these requirements may be granted by the City without a variance through the PUD process. A full evaluation of the proposal was presented to the Planning Commission on July 6, 2022. The memo to the Planning Commission on this case is provided in Attachment L. Draft minutes from the meeting are included in Attachment M. Chapter 11, Subdivisions 1. Preliminary and Final Plat A. Lot Line Adjustment and Planned Unit Development The Applicant is proposing to plat the Subject Property to adjust the lot lines between the two parcels as shown in the image below. The redevelopment of the site will consist of two buildings that function under shared parking, access, maintenance, and other items. In the B-3 zoning district, proposals for new construction, redevelopment of a site, and significant modifications to existing sites shall use the Planned Unit Development (PUD) process. A PUD promotes the development of land in a unified manner by treating the entire development as a single entity. The purpose of the PUD process is to achieve a higher quality and better project than would otherwise be possible if the strict application of the zoning and subdivision requirements were met. The City Council should evaluate the architectural style and building character based on the quality of its design and on its relationship to its surroundings.
