4 <br /> • 10. BUSINESS PARK TASK FORCE <br /> The Task Force met once again on January 12th in order to: <br /> a. Review the changes and additions to the proposed B-P Zoning <br /> District; <br /> b. Discuss the proposed Comprehensive Land Use Amendment affecting <br /> the I-1, Light Industrial Land Use in the western part of Elk River; and to <br /> c. Obtain an update on Anoka Electric Cooperative's(AEC'S) <br /> participation in the Elk River request to REA for infrastructure <br /> funding. <br /> The standards for a B-P Zoning District were approved by Council action on January <br /> 18th. Although no land in Elk River currently contains this zoning, the standards are of <br /> record and are now considered part of the City's ordinance. <br /> The City Council will conduct a public hearing on the Comp Plan Amendment request on <br /> February 17th. Following its public hearing on this matter, the Elk River Planning <br /> Commission unanimously recommended that this amendment request be denied. One <br /> Business Park Task Force member submitted a letter in response to comments made at the <br /> Planning Commission. This letter is included in the agenda packet. <br /> • <br /> Although nothing has been finalized in writing through AEC, staff is currently working on <br /> an initial draft of the REA application. Before long, the EDA and its Business Park Task <br /> Force will need to finalize a site and begin an engineering feasibility study in order to help <br /> determine project costs and the amount of the grant-loan request to REA. <br /> 11. PROSPECT STATUS REPORT <br /> The Prospect Status Report has been sent under separate cover. <br />
