City of Centerville <br />Planning and Zoning Commission <br />July 10, 2023 <br /> <br />Way has been constructed and there are a few new developments along Fairview Avenue and <br />Commerce Drive. Around the same time that the Planning and Zoning Commission was reviewing <br />parking restrictions in the industrial district, an issue with trucks queuing on street at 2050/2070 <br />Main Street, waiting to enter the site to load and unload, emerged. Administrator Statz met with the <br />landowner and property managers of American Roofing Supply to discuss options to remedy the <br />situation. This property owner obtained several letters of support from surrounding businesses to <br />allow on street parking in industrial areas, and the city council discussed this item, remanding it <br />back to the Planning and Zoning Commission for further review. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued about two-hour on street parking, striping, and signage on Commerce Drive. <br />Administrator Statz noted that staffÓs recommendation is to allow two-hour on street parking on the <br />south side of Commerce Drive. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Thompson, seconded by Commissioner Krueger to allow two-hour <br />on street parking along the south side of Commerce Drive. All in favor. Motion carried. <br />VII. NEW BUSINESS <br />1. Schedule a Work Session for Candidate Interviews <br />Administrator Statz introduced this item, noting that the Planning and Zoning Commission has <br />received an application to fill a board vacancy. Discussion ensued about interviewing candidate(s) <br />at 6:00p.m. at the next Commission meeting. <br />Motion by Commissioner Broussard-Vickers, seconded by Commissioner Thompson to <br />th <br />schedule a 6pm work session on August 8 to interview candidate(s) to fill a board vacancy. <br />All in favor. Motion carried. <br />2. Concept Plan Î Block 7 Î Lennar <br />Administrator Statz introduced this item, noting that Lennar is presenting three concept plans: A, B, <br />C. The plans show between 21-25 townhomes, depending on the plan. The plans are similar to what <br />Centra Homes presented. Concept A has 23 townhomes facing all three streets: Centerville Road, <br />Sorrel Street, and Heritage Street and four of the homes are in the middle. Concept B is more dense <br />with 25 townhomes, and 6 in the middle; these homes face all three streets as well. Concept C has <br />21 units with no homes in the middle. Concept C is most like the proposal from Centra Homes. <br />Administrator Statz noted that the design guidelines in the Downtown Masterplan call for brick, <br />glass, and masonry in the design. The concept plans that Lennar is proposing do not meet these <br />guidelines. Josh with Lennar showed the Commission a townhome development in Anoka that is <br />made of brick, but otherwise similar to the concepts being proposed here. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued about the concept plans, architecture, maintenance, HOA agreements, downtown <br />masterplan guidelines, etc. The Planning Commission Prefers Concept C to Concepts A and B. The <br />Commission requested that the Lennar incorporate more French architecture and bring plans back <br />for further review. <br /> <br />3. Concept Plan Î Block 7 Î Kennedy Property Development <br />Administrator Statz introduced this item, noting that Kennedy Property DevelopmentÓs project is <br />for a 37-unit market rate apartment building. Rashad with Kennedy Property Development showed <br />the Commission a couple of projects they recently completed: a condemned building in St. Paul that <br />they turned into apartments with retail spaces as well as Kennedy Square Townhomes.
