City of Elk River—Zone Change Chris Leeseberg, Senior Planner
■ Zone Change - C2 (Office District) to R1c Reviewed by
(Single Family Residential) and DD (Downtown Zachary Carlton, Planning Manager
District), Case No. ZC 18-03
Action Requested
Recommend, by motion, approval of an ordinance rezoning three lots from C2 (Office District) to R1c
(Single Family Residential) and two lots from C2 to DD (Downtown District) for the following reason:
1. The rezoning is consistent with the City of Elk River Land Use Plan adopted as part of the City
of Elk River Comprehensive Plan.
Background/Discussion
The five-lot area is located immediately adjacent to Elk
River downtown on the southwest and is zoned C2
(Office District). Three of the properties are utilized as
residential, one property is a parking lot for an existing CR 33
commercial use (Dare's funeral home), and one property
is vacant. The city is seeking to rezone the eastern half to
DD (Downtown District) to match the area to the east, z
reflecting current and planned uses, and the western half RR
to R1c (Single Family Residential) to match the
surrounding residential district. This is consistent with the Hwy 10
Comprehensive Plan,which guides the property for - CR 12
Mississippi Connections, a land use characterized by a -
mixture of shopping and housing.
The zoning and uses of the property currently do not
match on the three western parcels. Rezoning these y
properties would make the three residential properties
legal conforming lots. Rezoning the parking lot would
allow it to be consistent with the adjacent business that it
supports. Figure I
