RE: Joint CRA/WARC/City Commission Workshop of August 8th
Dear David,
Enclosed please find packets for the Commissioners for next week's workshop, summarizing each
of the four proposals received for the redevelopment of Blocks 28 and 36. CRA Chairman John
Weaver will give a brief review of each of the proposals at the workshop and open it up for
discussion. Members of the development teams will be on hand to answer questions.
The enclosed information consists of the following:
· A matrix of basic project data, including costs, square footages, number of units, etc.
· An analysis of each project's parking requirement and supply.
All of the proposals will require a land use and zoning change to General Commercial (GC) for
portions of Block 36. These changes will be processed as part of the City's 2000-2 Comprehensive
Plan Amendment. All of the projects meet the height and density limitations of the GC district,
however, they will all require conditional use approval to allow densities in excess of 12 units per
acre.
Subsequent to this joint workshop, the CRA will invite the public to comment on the proposals at
their meeting of August 24~h, which will be held in the Commission Chambers. The CRA is
scheduled to rank the projects at the September 14th meeting.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please give me a call.
