Background/Staff Comments

                                          

title

These three properties are within the Regional Commerce Design Concept.  The Regional Commerce Design Concept contains high-intensity centers that attract large numbers of people and employers from both within and outside of the City. The Regional Commerce area should transition in intensity and scale across this design concept.  In terms of multifamily uses:

 

New multifamily residential is encouraged within Regional Commerce to create lively, walkable neighborhoods near restaurants, shops, grocery stores, and workplaces….In locations where commercial use on the first floor is not viable, multifamily units should provide individual ground floor entrances, stoops, or front porches, and pedestrian connections to the street or to a drive resembling a street.

 

In terms of location, this site is not a viable location for commercial uses. The three properties are only accessed from a cul-de-sac located off a local road. The site also has stream buffer and floodplain constraints along its frontage.  Therefore, Multifamily is appropriate as a single use on this site.
