10.1 PCSR 10-28-1993 ITEM 10.1 ELK RIVER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY • TO: ELK RIVER PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: WILLIAM RUBIN, E .D. COORDINATOR DATE: OCTOBER 21 , 1993 RE : PROPOSED B-P, BUSINESS PARK ZONING DISTRICT Introduction In May, the Elk River Economic Development Authority (EDA) established a task force whose charge was to evaluate the existing inventory of industrial property in the community and to bring forth recommendations on what role the EDA may play in encouraging more industrial parks/business parks in Elk River. Background ID The Business Park Task Force met throughout the summer and fall months on this matter. On October 11 , 1993 the City Council heard an update from the Task Force and took action on the following issues : A. Up to $400 , 000 in funds from TIF Districts No . 1 and No . 3 would be reserved for the acquisition of addition- al industrial/business park sites . Financing the infra- structure costs would likely be done by other financing tools . B. Two separate areas in Elk River should be developed with additional industrial/business parks . A "light industrial" area, utilizing the City' s existing standards , should be developed in the eastern part of the community. A "business park" or "business campus" development should be sited in the western part of Elk River . C . A new B-P, Business Park Zoning District and related standards should be established. This matter, by way of City Council action, was referred to the Planning Commission for review and analysis . • P.O.
