93 development process may have a location and design that allows it to overcome the price 94 deterrent. 95 On August 12, 2019, the City Council adopted an updated and revised Policy Priority Plan (PPP). New 96 to this version of the PPPwas a housing strategic priority, which is included with this RCA as part of 97 Attachment E. The stated initiative is to meet all housing needs within the City and to address all levels 98 of affordability, housing styles and types, availability, and market needs. The desired outcome was to 99 increase the number of housing units. This initiative and desired outcome is relevant to the proposed 100 project, for the following reasons: 101 It provides 17 additional housing units. 102 It provides for a housing product type (i.e., detached, one-level living) that is lacking in 103 Roseville and the entire metro area’s housing market. 104 Rice –Larpenteur Vision Plan 105 The Rice –Larpenteur Vision Plan is the product of a multijurisdictional community engagement effort 106 to create a revitalization strategy to bring renewed public and private-sector investment to the area 107 around the intersection of Rice Street and Larpenteur Avenue, and to foster an attractive destination with 108 strong businessesand vibrantneighborhoods, where pedestrians can move about in safety and comfort. 109 Upon its completion the Rice – Larpenteur Vision Plan was incorporated into the 2040 Comprehensive 110 Plan as Appendix B; an excerpt of the plan detailing the following elements is included with this RPCA 111 as part of Attachment E. 112 Short Term Redevelopment & Reinvestment | Catalyst Site #6: Infill senior residential 113 development along S McCarrons Boulevard at new connection of Marion Street greenway. 114 As noted previously, the proposed development is not necessarily restricted to seniors, but the 115 anticipated residential amenities tend to be particularly attractive to that demographic group. 116 Marion Greenway “Big I 117 Washington Technology Magnet School. This connection will require improved (above standard) 118 crossings at Wheelock Parkway and at Larpenteur Avenue. 119 The trail illustrated in the proposed development would be the northernmost segment of this non- 120 motorized transportation corridor. 121 Redevelopment Concept | Lake McCarrons Site (i.e., 210 S McCarrons Boulevard): The 122 redevelopment concept for this site is predicated on the extension of Marion Street to Lake 123 124 greenway. The redevelopment of this site is proposed as senior housing/assisted living with the 125 buildings and site features oriented towards Lake McCarrons. This housing type fills a desired 126 need within the district and allows for unique lakefront living. 127 Planning Division staff acknowledges that the requested comprehensive plan land use map change is not 128 a necessary step to developing most of the site with even greater density than is proposed since the 129 larger parcels are already guided for medium-density residential development. In fact, the 210 S 130 McCarrons Boulevard parcels have been guided for medium density residential development in 131 Roseville’s comprehensive plans for more than 40 years. Therefore, rather than an attempt to increase 132 the density allowed on this site, the requested change to the comprehensive plan map represents the 133 desire to make more efficient use of the overall site to design a development of single-family, detached 134 homes as well as accommodating the pedestrian connection between Marion Street and Lake McCarrons 135 County Park. 7b RCA UPDATED Page 4 of 13
