The motion was seconded by Mr. Kohler and passed unanimously. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Comprehensive Plan Update Mr. Grochala provided an update on the Comprehensive Plan. He stated that the City Council was considering the elimination of the mixed use district designation. Mr. Grochala provided an overview of the existing mixed use parcels, proposed commercial/residential splits and proposed housing density. Board members questioned how would existing mixed use parcels be guided if district is eliminated and how would affordability requirements be handled. Mr. Grochala stated that those are issues that would need to be addressed. Decisions would need to be made to reguide parcels either residential or commercial. Additionally, the density range with the High Density area would need to be reevaluated to meet both affordability goals and address the overall 3.0 unit per acre density requirement for sewered residential use. B. Project Updates Mr. Grochala updated the board on three proposed commercial projects currently going through the approval process including Distinctive Elements contractor office, Love to Grow On day care and the Main Street Shoppes project. Mr. Johnson asked about the West Shadow Lakes Drive reconstruction. Mr. Grochala stated that a lakeshore owners meeting was being held to discuss the outlet elevation of Reshanau Lake. He stated the project includes raising the road elevation and replacement of the outlet culvert. This has the potential to impact lake elevations. Staff is working with DNR, RCWD, and the Army Corps of Engineers on the design permitting process. Mr. Schwartz asked how the project was being funded. Mr. Grochala stated that the street and storm sewer portion was being paid for through property taxes. The sewer and water extensions are being assessed against benefitting properties. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 9:01 A.M. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM 3A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director EDAC MEETING DATE: May 3, 2018 REQUEST: 49 & J Development Interest Backl1round Staff has had ongoing conversations with Richard Morris, owner of the 17 acre parcel north of the liquor store and insurance agency, regarding potential development. This is the site that has previously been considered for a grocery store and more recently a housing development. The land is currently zoned GB, General Business but guided mixed use in the Comprehensive Plan, to allow for both commercial and residential development. The Hodgson Road & CRJ Master Planning Study was prepared for the mixed use area and approved by the City Council in 2007. The study is available on the City website under Community Development/City Planning/Planning Studies. The study was incorporated into the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The plan is intended to establish a general land use design with some specified important design elements. As noted in the comprehensive plan, future amendments of the Plan may be appropriate to address evolving community needs, market forces, and regulatory requirements. The plan had four objectives: 1. Identify appropriate land uses (present and future) in the study area 2. Plan for road improvements to provide good access and circulation 3. Identify routing & Phasing solutions for utilities to facilitate future development 4. Plan for redevelopment while recognizing existing businesses. The planning study assumed that approximately half of the area would develop with residential uses at approximately 10 units per acre overall. The Comprehensive Plan allows the density to range from 8 to 15 units per acre. Lyngblomsten, a senior care provider with an existing campus in St. Paul, recently inquired about creating a new campus in Lino Lakes. While the Legacy at Woods did not work out staff suggested looking at the 49 & J area as a possibility. Lyngblomsten has since begun working to develop a concept plan for consideration. As a precursor to a formal submittal the group is requesting an initial discussion with the city to seek input on the plan and general interest in the proposal. Representatives from Lyngblomsten and their development team will be presenting a concept plan at the meeting. Requested EDAC Direction The meeting will provide an opportunity to discuss the project with Lyngblomsten representatives. Staff will be requesting comment from EDAC on the proposed concept.
