The topography of the site is sloping from the northwest comer to the southeast comer, A 2.8 acre DNR protected wetland pond exists in the south east comer of the site, C. Comprehensive Plan Designation The city's comprehensive plan designates the site for high density residential/park. The plan also identifies the site as a possible location for a planned unit development(pUD). Such a PUD could include a mix of housing types including multi story apartments, and townhouses. Housing units could owned or rental, market rate or subsidized, and senior or family housing or any combination thereof D. Public Uses Developer will be responsible for park dedication and/or improvements or for the provision of a private park open to the public, The location and shape of the park and pond may be changed to best meet the needs of the project. E. Zoning The site is zoned B-1 Limited Business, The city council will rezone the site as a PUD to provide design and use flexibility for an appropriate well designed housing project. The density of development on this site could range from 12 to 36 units per acre in a mixed use format, but must include open space adjacent to the pond. The existing structure on the site may be demolished or incorporated into the project. Demolition of the structure will be the responsibility of the developer. City staff estimates that the cost of demolition would be approximately $110,000, Proper sensitive transitions and/or buffers to adjacent single family and office uses are required, F. Adjacent Land Uses As can be seen :from the attached map, adjacent land uses include multi family residential on the east and west sides, office and restaurant uses on the south side, and church and single family residential uses on the north side. The developer may include collaborative designs with adjacent property owners, Adjacent multi-family uses include the Coventry project which consists of2 and 5 story buildings at an overall density of22,71 units per acre, Centennial Gardens project which consists of2-l/2 story buildings at a density of 19.33 units per acre, and the Terrace Park project which consists of3 story buildings at a density of 18 units per acre. G. Environmental Status Phase 1 and 2 Environmental Assessments have or will be conducted on the site. The results and recommendations of these studies will be made available upon RFPARONA 2 December 14, 1994
