Knoll is located on the south side of Alpine Drive. They also spoke in opposition to not only the <br />single lot being rezoned to medium density but the decision last year to designate the entke <br />project area now referred to as Alpine Acres to medium density residential in the Comprehensive <br />Plan. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />The Planning Commission opinion was that the portion of the subject property proposed to be <br />developed with townhomes will serve as the entrance to the proposed Alpine Acres subdivision <br />consisting of 202 town_house units. Changing the subject properties land use designation to <br />medium density residential appears to be compatible with the existing land use designations and <br />development plans for the remainder of the area. It was noted that if the portion of the parcel <br />proposed to be developed with towhomes retained the single family zoning, there could be 4 <br />single family homes developed. The developer agreed to reduce the number of townhomes <br />proposed for this area from 6 to 4. The P!anning Commission recommended that City Council <br />approve the request for an amendment to the Comprehensi,~e Plan. <br /> <br />The City Council tabled action on the request for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change <br />the subject property's land use designation in the Comprehensive Plan at their June 10, 2003 <br />meeting. The City Council wanted to discuss the preliminary plat of Alpine Acres and Alpine <br />Acres 2nd Addition at a special work session before taking action on the request for a <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember and seconded by Councilmember to adopt <br />Resolution #03-06- approving the request and authorizing City staff to submit the <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment to Metropolitan Council for approval and that said amendment <br />will be contingent upon the applicant receiving a rezoning to R-2 Medium Density residential <br />and upon preliminary plat and site plan approval of Alpine Acres 2nd Addition. <br /> <br />-or- <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember and seconded by Councilmember to direct City <br />staff to prepare a resolution to consider denial of the request for a Comprehensive Plan <br />Amendment. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />Principal Planner <br />Community Development Director <br /> <br />CC: 06/24/03 <br /> <br />Copies to: <br />City Adm/nistrator <br />City Attorney <br /> <br />-208- <br /> <br /> <br />
