IMPLEMENTATION <br /> <br />Work with property owners to promote the maintenance and revitalization o f existing <br />buildings. <br />Provide guidance to the City to ensure that proposed development projects and public <br />improvements are consistent with the plan. <br />Promote development projects with sustainable design practices. <br />Work to find the appropriate funding options for development and redevelopment. <br />Community at Large <br />The community of Elk River must stay involved as the development of the FAST area <br />continues over time. The community must work together with decision makers and <br />provide the necessary input for any new development to respect existing land-owners <br />and meet the vision of the ~7~st Avenue FAST. <br />Provide a singular focus for the plan. The knowledge gained from the planning process will <br />allow members of the community to efficiently and effectively comment on development and <br />redevelopment proposals. <br />Continue public involvement. Open House comments and review o f development proposals. <br />LAND USE CONTROLS <br />The initial focus of implementation will be on actions needed to establish the master <br />plan as the official guide for development for the i7ist Avenue FAST. These procedural <br />steps in implementation involve the adoption of key policy documents and updated <br />development controls. <br />Approve the Master Plan <br />The first implementation step is City Council action to approve this master plan. City <br />Council approval sets the stage for subsequent actions. The master plan is used <br />to inform subsequent planning efforts such as comprehensive plans, zoning and <br />allocation of resources. <br />Amend Land Use Controls <br />Plan approval is the trigger for taking other actions needed to guide land use for the <br />i7ist Avenue FAST in accordance with this master plan. Land use controls not only <br />promote the desired development outcomes, they also prevent development that is <br />not consistent with the plan. <br />Comprehensive Plan <br />Step one is to update the City's Comprehensive Plan with the new "Future <br />Development Framework Plan", Figure 6.i and the new land use plan designations <br />consistent with the vision of this master plan. Amending the Comprehensive Plan <br />creates the foundation for all other implementation actions. Consistency with <br />the Comprehensive Plan is a statutory requirement for zoning regulations, capital <br />{,. <br />64 ~71Ht:. G1v2nU2 Focused Area STudy <br />
