Heritage Preservation Commission Meeting <br />Elk River City Hall <br />July 15, 2021 <br />5.4 Draft Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br />Mr. Carlton presented the draft land use plan. <br /> <br />Chair Lindberg had some comments regarding expansion of an area to be considered <br />as downtown neighborhoods. He explained some history about the area on Morton <br />Street sometimes known as the Horseshoe and noting some notable historical <br />families lived in the neighborhood. He stated at one point they were considering <br />designating the neighborhood as historical but that would require specific <br />architectural standards along with the support of the neighborhood. He stated he <br />does not want this neighborhood to be included in a commercial district, stating it <br />will affect the integrity of the neighborhood. He prefers the preservation of the <br />neighborhood as is and requested discussion at the Planning Commission and City <br />Council levels. <br /> <br />Mr. Carlton explained the discussion at the Comprehensive Plan Advisory <br />Committee regarding the expansion of the downtown district and where to draw <br />those boundaries with consideration of the constraints of Highway 10 and the <br />railroad tracks. He stated the proposed expansion west of downtown doesn’t mean <br />adding additional buildings like Jackson Avenue and Granite Shores but instead <br />supported the growth of the downtown character. He stated not everything would be <br />zoned commercial nor would they tear down what’s currently there. He stated the <br />uses and boundaries in the downtown would then be reviewed and rewritten. Any <br />changes would be up to the property owner and the city wouldn’t generate these <br />changes. He stated this proposed change wouldn’t happen overnight. He stated what <br />it would do is allow property owners additional opportunities to their parcels. <br /> <br />Chair Lindberg stated he would prefer more boundaries be in place to protect the <br />integrity of the Morton residential neighborhood. <br /> <br />Mr. Carlton stated there would be a public comment period and review by both <br />Planning Commission and City Council. <br /> <br />6. Adjournment <br /> <br />There being no further business, Chair Lindberg adjourned the meeting of the Elk <br />River Heritage Preservation Commission at 7:25 p.m. <br /> <br />Minutes prepared by Jennifer Green. <br /> <br /> <br />Tina Allard <br />City Clerk <br /> <br /> <br />Lance Lindberg <br />Heritage Preservation Commission Chair
