it ci Elk* River Request for Action To Item Number Mayor and City Council 9.1 Agenda Section Meeting Date Prepared by Work Session November 16, 2020 Zack Carlton, Planning Manager Item Description Reviewed by Concept Review: Tammy Jorgensen Cal Portner, City Administrator Reviewed by Action Requested Review the proposed projects and provide the applicant with informal/non-binding feedback. Background/Discussion The applicant is seeking Council feedback regarding two proposed apartment projects. The first site is located south of the Jackson Street Water tower and proposes a six -unit apartment building on a 0.13-acre parcel in the C-1 zoning district. The current zoning does not permit stand-alone residential buildings and would require rezoning or development as a PUD. The site is also relatively small for a building of this size and compliance with parking and design standards will be of particular concern. The second project is located on the south side of Main Street, south of the dam. The vacant lot recently had an existing building demolished. The proposal includes a six -unit apartment building and a six -stall parking garage on the 0.43-acre parcel in the R-1c zoning district. The current zoning does not permit apartment buildings and would require rezoning or development as a PUD. This is also relatively small for a project of this size but is better suited for the proposal. Compliance with parking and design standards will also be of concern.
