A Comprehensive Plan Amendment and <br />' amendments to the Zoning Ordinance would be needed if development were to <br />follow this scenario. <br />Table 6-3: Scenario 3 <br /> <br />Land Use Acres <br />(Gross) Housing <br />(units) Commercial <br />(sgft) Industrial <br />(sgft) <br />High Density Residential 46 920 <br />Job Area 116 1,768,536 <br />Destination Retail 45 686,070 <br />Temporary Destination 20 304,920 <br />Retail <br />Transit Center 8 87,120 <br />Service /Commercial 3 45,738 <br />Open Space 5 <br />TH 10 Right-of-way 10 <br />TOTAL 253 920 1,123,848 1,768,536 <br />* Calculations do not take into account existing or proposed wetlands, storm ponds, roads, <br />right-of-way, parks, or railroad easements in the study area. <br />Development Assumptions <br />The development assumptions used to create the three scenarios are intended to <br />satisfy guidance from the Environmental Quality Board (EQB), which indicates that <br />the AUAR document should cover the possible impacts through a 'worst case <br />scenario' analysis or else prevent the impacts through provisions of the mitigation <br />plan. This means that the residential density assumption used to analyze the <br />development scenarios maybe higher than the actual built density and the assumed <br />intensity of commercial and industrial development maybe more intense than that <br />' Ciry of Elk River <br />Draft Alternative Urban Areawide Review <br />July 2011 <br />Page 17 of 84 <br />
