The property was home to the Arden Hills City Hall and Public Works for <br />many years. While a redevelopment plan for this property was not adopted in <br />time for this Comprehensive Plan, residential uses or a mix of residential and <br />small-scale commercial uses are anticipated. Neither residential nor commercial <br />development should require a change to the future land use designation. <br />6.4.3 Guiding Plan for the B2 District <br />In March 2008, the City initiated a visioning and planning process for the B-2 <br />General Business District, which generally includes the commercial properties <br />near County Road E between Lexington Avenue and Hamline Avenue/Highway <br />51 (Figure 6.4). This area hosts a number of retail, service, and office uses. <br />Long considered the "downtown" of Arden Hills, the district is a mix of newer and <br />older buildings. As this corridor ages, market initiated redevelopment is <br />anticipated. <br />The City completed the planning process and accepted the "Guiding Plan for the <br />B2 District" in October 2008. The Guiding Plan includes a long-term vision for <br />the future redevelopment of this corridor and addresses transportation issues, <br />Approved : September 28, 2009 <br />6-8 <br />
