Memo to the Planning Commission/LU 97-3 <br /> July 22, 1997 <br /> Page 2 <br /> • topography, gas lines and other utility structures, the light industrial land <br /> use that was identified for the subject 80 acres no longer makes sense. <br /> The Eastern Elk River Planning Study includes a road corridor which is the <br /> realignment of County Road No. 13 which will act as the physical separation <br /> between land uses of light industrial to the west and open space/residential <br /> to the east. The road will act as a similar land use transition south of County <br /> Road No. 12 between future commercial as well as residential, again, on the <br /> east side of the Country Road No. 13 realignment. With the additional <br /> information that has been acquired with the study of this eastern Elk River <br /> area, staff believes the land use plan amendment makes good land use sense. <br /> Previous Actions <br /> On March 18, 1996 the City Council denied a request to rezone the subject <br /> property to light industrial. The rezoning application was brought forward to <br /> rezone certain property to conform to the Comprehensive Land Use Plan <br /> designation of LI (Light Industrial). <br /> Recommendation <br /> • It is recommended the Planning Commission recommend approval of the <br /> proposed land use plan amendment by Contractor Property Developer's <br /> Company, amending the land use plan from LI (Light Industrial) to MR <br /> (Medium Density Residential). <br /> • <br /> \\elkriver\sys\shrdoc\planning\pc\lu97-3.doc <br />
