Mr Jim Boo The City of Centerville has three interested developers for the site at 7073 Centerville Road. They would like each interested developers to present their concept plans for the site at a combined meeting of the Economic Development Authority and the Planning and Zoning Commission, on Wednesday,January 16, 2019. After hearing all proposals,the city hopes to choose one of the proposing firms to enter into a Letter Of Intent(LOI) to move forward to discuss, in more detail, their proposed use. The bullet points below give an outline of what the City is looking for in a development. We look forward to seeing your presentation on the 16th of January. • City owns property on Block 7, of the original plat of Centerville. Current asking price is $349,000 • Current zoning is M-1/M-2. M-1 requires retail on first floor. City may waive this requirement. • City would like this block to be a catalyst to further redevelopment of the downtown and hopes it will help spur interest in retail opportunities in the area. As such, density, to help drive retail, will be part of the evaluation, balanced with the quality of the individual units and overall project value. • Streetscape improvements on Centerville Road will be required. They will follow a similar pattern to those on Main Street. • Road improvements on Sorel Street will be required. • Sewer and water are in place on the site and are shown on the site plan (survey). Both are sized appropriately for high density development. • Stormwater treatment is in place and available for use, off site, with no direct cost(other than standard city fees and the cost of site storm sewer to connect into the trunk system). • 2018 City fees are as shown on the attached fee schedule. We do not anticipate major increases in any of those fees for 2019, but certainly modest increases would be possible. • Attention should be paid to the intent of the Downtown Master Plan and Design Guidelines. Architectural elements and the layout of the development, especially as it fronts Centerville Road will be of particular importance. • The Downtown Master Plan calls for all parking (except visitor parking)to be underground or secured. While this is preferred,the city is open to alternative proposals with regard to parking. • Proposals should address whether the development intends to be owner-occupied or rentals. • We will be entertaining concept plans for redevelopment of the site at a joint meeting of P&Z/EDA on Jan 16. After hearing all proposals, this group may choose one of the proposing firms to enter into a Letter Of Intent(LOI) to move forward to discuss in more detail their proposed use.
