CAS # HIGH'W'AY ,~10 Ib'DUSTtLI.'-kL DEV'ELOP.,~EE~T By: James E. Norman, City. Administrator Background: During recent faciiitator4ed Comprehensive Plan discussions with ~e Ci~ Council, a ~eat deal of discussion centered on the need for more indusU~al deveiopmem land. As pm of the discussion, staff' noted the um. de~afilized area to the south of Highway #10 that may be poorly suited for hi~*_~way commercial business development because it is located on the left hand side of the "going home u~a~]:qc''. Staff has identified various potential mdus~al sites along Highway #10, beginning at the .4moka City. limits through to the weszem boundary, of Mississippi West Re~onal Park. Additionally, st~f has identified the area north of I--7Jghway #I0, adjacent to the Elk P-dyer ciu tirni~s. A map of r. he sites is ,~trached with th_is case. Observations: Changing the Imnd use depilation from Highway Commercial to Industrial in areas adjacent to Hi~?:,,ay #i0 n,~s a couple of benefits. First, there already is a great deal of [and use desig-nated as Highway Commercial making it highly unlikely that all d~e land would be utilized with quah~ corr, mercial development Secondly, the area south of' Highway #10, between the ,,Mnoka ci~ ',jnrfir~ and Mississippi West Regional Park, is in Tax Lncrement Financing District No. 4, which will rema/n m existence r.p:ough the year .~0 ~.~: Commission Action: Based upon discussion.
