<br />28 <br /> <br />District 8 <br /> <br />Just east of I-35E along Rice Street is the older village area of Little Canada, with a mix of <br />institutional uses (school, fire hall, parks, church, and city center), single-family homes, and small <br />commercial buildings. As with the rest of the City, this area is fully developed. Over time, it is <br />expected that some of the single-family homes along Little Canada Road may seek some <br />redevelopment due to traffic impacts in the area. The City will consider these requests with <br />attention to architecture and site planning reflecting a more traditional village development pattern, <br />along with case-by-case environmental improvements. <br /> <br />This area includes a large complex of wetlands and drains toward Gervais Lake, one of the <br />community’s major recreational resources, and maintaining water quality will continue to be an <br />importation consideration in protecting this resource. <br /> <br />District 9 <br /> <br />In the southeast quadrant of the I-35E/I-694 interchange area, District 9 includes a highly varied <br />mix of land uses including single-family neighborhoods of varying age, townhouse development <br />along the City’s largest active park complex, a multiple family complex, and office -warehouse <br />uses in the area most exposed to the freeways. The City has taken an active role in upgrading <br />multiple family housing standards due to concerns over public safety issues in this neighborhood <br />and expects to continue to do so. Resolving these issues will continue to be key in preserving <br />property values and minimizing the costs of services that impact the community at large. <br /> <br />In the north portion of this district, an undeveloped area of nearly twenty acres is divided by a <br />power company transmission line. The land use plan proposes to use this line as a separation <br />between a continuation of residential patterns to the south, and office or limited industrial uses to <br />the north, facing I-694. Consideration of industrial uses will likely depend again on development <br />quality and traffic generation issues. As a part of the residential area south of the transmission <br />line, some limited attached housing at medium density will be considered adjacent to the existing <br />warehousing and townhouse neighborhood. <br /> <br />District 10 <br /> <br />This district consists exclusively of low density neighborhoods adjacent or very near to Gervais <br />Lake, and includes some of the highest value housing in the community. There is very little <br />developable land in this district, with a few limited parcels containing the potential for an <br />occasional lot split. The primary objective in this area will be to maintain the existing land use <br />pattern, and continue to seek opportunities for environmental improvements to protect the Lake. <br />Many of these improvements may be private initiatives, such as lake-side buffer strips and <br />minimization of impervious surfaces where possible. The City has recently adopted some zoning <br />regulations that will complement these private efforts. <br /> <br />District 11 <br /> <br />The north and east portion of Little Canada is exclusively single-family residential, much of which <br />has developed within the past 20 years. This district has just a few areas of potential development
