Staff has a strong desire to continue working with the applicant to facilitate the master plan, assemble the required properties, and demolish the required structures. Staff believes this can be accomplished within a timeframe that allows the applicant to maintain their desired construction start date of October 1, 2017, as well as provide for the orderly development of the area, benefiting the community as a whole. Staff has included three action items for the current zone change request, which are described below. 1) Deny the current zone change application. This option will provide the city with additional time to facilitate development of the master plan. Implementation of the master plan, which includes shifting the project to the north, still requires rezoning and a land use application could be submitted in July. 2) Approve the current zone change application. The current application isolates residential uses between industrial operations, does not create a plan for efficient development of the remaining parcels within the block, extends the timeline for implementation of the quiet zone (potentially costing additional taxpayer dollars), and does not allow for the county preferred location of a replacement for 6`h Street as part of future improvements to Proctor Avenue NW. 3) The applicant may extend, in writing, their application to allow further work to be completed on the implementation of the master plan. Financial Impact None Statutory Review Period Per State Statute 15.99 the required 60 -day review period ends on April 28, 2017. The application has been extended to June 27, 2017.
