9.3. SR 05-15-2017City of Elk — River Request for Action To Item Number Mayor and City Council 9.3 Agenda Section Meeting Date Prepared by Work Session May 15, 2017 Zack Carlton, Planning Manager Item Description Reviewed by Highway 10 Corridor —Vision and Beautification Cal Portner, City Administrator Reviewed by Action Requested Discuss the Council's vision and beautification goals for the Highway 10 corridor between 171 st Avenue and the border with Ramsey. Background/Discussion Development interest along the Highway 10 corridor south of 171" Avenue (Cornerstone) has experienced an increase over the past couple of years. The construction of multiple projects and development requests have begun to shape the area and with the recent ordinance amendment request related to outdoor storage, there is an increased focus on aesthetics and the southern entrance to Elk River. The segment of roadway is about 2.8 miles long and includes nine different zoning districts, and nine different land use designations. The area also includes plans for a new signalized intersection which will provide access to a new north -south connection in Twin Lakes Road, the Kelley Farm, and significant amounts of developable land. There are also code enforcement and vacant building concerns which should be addressed as part of any beautification initiative in the area. As the southern entrance to the city, what does Council want this area to look like? Is there a desire to focus on commercial, industrial, or residential uses? How proactive should the city be in code enforcement issues?
