Park zoning designation line could be adjusted to the north and extend

line to the north.

approximately 150 acres from PUD (Planned Unit Development) and C2
(Office District), to BP (Business Park). During the meeting, Stewart Wilson,

directly west from the southwest corner of the County Government Center's
property. Mr. Wilson's rationale for the request was that it would provide for
a larger area for residential development, while maintaining the integrity of
the Business Park district. The Planning Commission and City Council
concurred with Mr. Wilson's request and adjusted the Business Park zoning
line to the north.
ANALYSIS
Due to the shifting of the Business Park zoning line to the north, there is a
small strip of property currently zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development)
with an underlying land use of LI (Light Industrial). The City of Elk River is
proposing to rezone the property from PUD (Planned Unit Development) to
Ric (Single Family Residential) and amend the Land Use Map from LI (Light
Industrial) to MR (Medium Density Residential). The rezoning and changing
of the land use to residential will allow Mr. Wilson the ability to development
a large enough area for residential uses and will remove a small island of
PUD zoned property which is currently surrounded by residential and
business park zoning district.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning from PUD (Planned Unit
Development) to Ric (Single Family Residential) and the Land Use
amendment from LI (Light Industrial) to MR (Medium Density Residential)
based upon the following findings:
1. The rezoning and land use amendment will not compromise the
integrity and establishment of the Business Park zoning district.
2. The rezoning and land use amendment will allow for a continuous
strip of compatible residential uses to occur in the western area of
the City.
