FILE NO: 798-04 — 05.02
As y ou are aware, the Plannin Commission, at their Januar 13, 2005 meetin
discussed the re b Wal-Mart to chan the Comprehensive Plan desi an
I
rezone their propert from CBD, Central Business District to B-2, General Busines,7
District. A plannin report dated Januar 6, 2005 outlined the Comprehensive Plan an 0,
zonin issues for the CBD. A cop of that report is found as attached. 0
The Plannin Commission re potential concepts for development/
redevelopment within the CBD if the current land use desi and CBD District zone
is chan to a B-2 District. The concepts reflect the Wal-Mart expansion as proposed,
the VSSA development that is concept planned in the southwest corner of the site, and
a revised plan for the Oak Townhome project in the southeast corner. The plans
for the central and northeast portions of the CBD reflect actual concepts created b
commercial development interests.
Please note that the plans/concept plans have been pieced to from a number of
sources. The purpose of this exercise is not to definitivel plan the exact buildin la
and roadwa location, but obtain consensus on g eneral land use, zonin and public
street la A brief review of each of the concepts is as follows:
Residential Concept. The plan preserves the Oak Villa area in the southeast
corner. The plans presented reflect a revision from what has been approved for g eneral
plan. The apartment buildin have been replaced b townhome units. This option
would re additional ri for Novak and intensive boulevard landscapin to
provide separation between commercial and residential land uses. An example of how
Novak could be landscaped is found as attached.
Concept 1. This commercial concept incorporates two additional retail centers east of
the Wal-Mart expansion. The area alon Oak and at the intersection of Oak
and 58th Street would need to be considered for desired land uses.
Concept 2. The retail uses have been spread out to include the Oak Avenue
area. The corner of 58th Street and Oak Avenue would also be up for discussion
on a commercial or residential land use.
Concept 3. A similar plan to Concept 2 with the lar retail centers east of Wal-Mart
switched in location.
Concept 4. Also a similar plan to Concept 2, but the area in the northeast corner has
been redeveloped with small retail/commercial uses.
