FY 17 <br />Cleanup - 12 <br /> <br />Explain your answer to the question above. <br /> <br />Without DEED funding, The Village may be forced to reduce to the degree to which <br />contamination at the property is cleaned up. Additional contaminated soil may be left on site, and <br />this may necessitate a modification in the position and size of the proposed buildings, thus <br />delaying the development and potentially reducing the number of housing units created and <br />future tax capacity. Additionally, reducing the degree to which the property is cleaned up reduces <br />the positive impact of the redevelopment on the community and increases the likelihood that <br />contamination will need to be addressed during future modifications or redevelopments at the <br />property. <br /> <br />IV. DEVELOPMENT PLAN AFTER CLEANUP <br /> <br />35. Describe in detail the Development Plan for the site after implementation of the RAP? <br /> (Number of buildings or housing units, square footage, etc.). <br />The Village intends to redevelop the property for residential use. Three residential buildings and <br />693 parking stalls will be constructed; one building (approximately 34,000 square feet in size) <br />will support 61 units of independent senior living, one building (approximately 47,000 square <br />feet in size) will support 128 units of assisted senior living, and one building (approximately <br />57,000 square feet in size) will support 146 units of market-rate housing and 79 units of <br />affordable housing. Buildings will be three and four stories tall. Of the 693 proposed parking <br />stalls, 407 stalls will be underground and 286 stalls will be surface parking. <br />The project will incorporate sustainable features and activities into building construction, <br />cleanup, and water usage whenever feasible. A stormwater management collection and treatment <br />system is proposed through a system of curbing, catch basins, underground conveyance, <br />ponding, and bio-retention. This includes traditional at-grade ponds and below grade bio- <br />filtration systems. <br />The Village was the primary interested party and conducted market analysis in order to <br />determine that the property be used residentially after development. The property is currently <br />zoned R-1 Single Family Residential and will be rezoned to Planned Unit Development to <br />accommodate a more flexible, creative, and efficient approach to land use. Preliminary approval <br />for the project was granted by the City on March 27, 2018. <br />The community will derive benefit from the redevelopment because it will provide a large <br />amount of quality, high-density housing to an in-demand and livable area of the City. Prior to <br />acquisition of the property, the property supported a blighted mobile home park with ageing <br />structures spread inefficiently across 15 acres. By redeveloping and remediating the property, <br />there will be vastly more housing available and the housing will be free of possible influence <br />from soil, soil vapor and groundwater contamination and therefore safer for residents. This <br />redevelopment will also create a significant tax base increase and create jobs at the property. <br />64
