PRELIMINARY CONCEPTS OVERVIEW <br />Traditions( TOD Concept: Phases <br />Traditional TOD Phasing Concept <br />Near Term Phase: <br />In the first phase as the current <br />transportation system remains intact, <br />anticipating the continued built out of <br />the Northstar Business Park and as the <br />private market dictates development and <br />or redevelopment of housing & mixed use <br />north of the rail line. Within the Gateway <br />area, a combination of end industrial <br />uses to the south and interim uses in the <br />remaining areas could be developed with <br />the city maintaining land ownership and <br />potentially allowing development through <br />a land lease scenario. Along with early <br />development opportunities, beginning <br />to position property in the northwest <br />of the site for future redevelopment by <br />preserving the appropriate right-of-way <br />and lobbying the rail line for an additional <br />railroad crossing to further pedestrian and <br />vehicular circulation through the area. <br />Mid Term Phase: <br />The next transportation trigger comes <br />with access in the northwest would help <br />facilitate development with an additional <br />roadway connection. In this phase the <br />roadway is built, and the area in the <br />northwest corner is redeveloped to office <br />or office showroom uses. The MNDOT <br />property north of 175th Avenue would <br />also be available for development after <br />the roadway improvements on Highway <br />X69. Additionally, as the timeline on the <br />Cargill agreement expires, the industrial <br />uses could develop in conjunction with <br />the extension of Twin Lakes Parkway to <br />65th Avenue. <br />Long Term Phase: <br />Finally, as Highway io~i6g is converted to <br />a freeway section with a new interchange, <br />interim uses within the Gateway and <br />land immediately adjacent to Highway <br />io~i6g would likely redevelop to higher <br />commercial ~ retail uses and the missing <br />roadway segments of Twin Lakes Parkway <br />would be completed. As the interchange <br />is built, the less intense land uses would <br />likely convert to more intense off=ice and <br />housing uses and the supporting local <br />roadway network would be reorganized <br />to support the new development <br />pattern. <br /> <br />
