10.6. SR 01-04-2016Request for Action To Item Number Mayor and City Council 10.6 Agenda Section Meeting Date Ijanuary4, Prepared by Work Session 2016 Chris Leeseber , Senior Planner Item Description Reviewed by Focused Area Study Zack Carlton, Planning Manager Reviewed by Cal Portner, City Administrator Action Requested Review and discuss the proposed uses in the FAST District. Background/Discussion In November of 2014, the City Council reviewed a request for an ordinance amendment to establish the FAST district, a new zoning district that would encompass the Focused Area Study (FAST). The Planning Commission reviewed the proposal over three meetings and unanimously recommended approval of the request in November of 2014. The Council asked that the item come back during two work sessions with half of the eight sub -districts being discussed at each meeting. The council reviewed the first four in April 2015 and had no concerns. For the work sessions, the council requested the following: 1. Provide maps of the study area as part of the packet. 2. Identify existing business uses in the sub -districts, and what impacts the amendment will have. The four sub -districts being reviewed during this work session are: ■ Station Area Village ■ River West Residential ■ East Elk River Gateway ■ Hillside Heights Attached are two exhibits identifying the Current Uses vs. Proposed Uses and the Proposed Uses by Sub - districts. Station Area Village Much of the Station Area Village is governed by Planned Unit Developments (PUD). There is no proposal to rezone any lots that are currently zoned PUD. Light manufacturing and warehousing are currently allowed but are recommended not to be allowed as it does not meet the visions and goals of this sub -area. Two properties in this district are currently zoned Light Industrial with light manufacturing and warehousing uses. If approved, these properties would be legal non -conforming uses, and allowed to continue operation as long as they like. River West Residential Only one property would be rezoned to a non -conforming use, the former Saxon site. It is currently zoned C-3 Highway Business, but has an underlying land use of Residential. The proposed High Density ""'ATURE] 0MERRE0 0C 'm Residential Zoning district is consistent with the approved Comprehensive Plan. East Elk River Gateway There will be no impacts on existing businesses. Hillside Heights There will be no impacts on existing businesses. After Council has reviewed all eight of the sub -districts in the FAST area, staff will submit required public hearing notices to initiate adoption of the ordinance during a future meeting.
