North Dayton Development AUAR AUAR study area will be Mixed Use, Low -Medium Density Residential, Low -Density Residential, and Agricultural Preserve. The Agricultural Preserve land that is located on the eastern edge of the project area is currently enrolled in the Metropolitan Agricultural Preserve Program and the enrollment will expire in 2019. The entire AUAR study area is also a main focus of the City's official 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update, and the entirety of the study area is currently being re -guided for the mix of uses outlined in this AUAR. Zoning, including special districts or overlays such as shoreland, floodplain, wild and scenic rivers, critical area, agricultural preserves, etc. The current zoning of the site consists of A-1 Agricultural District and S-A Special Agriculture District. The proposed zoning of the study area will be a Master Plan area to allow for a creative site design that maximizes land use while providing superior building design and stormwater management to protect surrounding sensitive natural areas. The area surrounding the site is planned for low -density residential housing. The northern portion of the site is located within the Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area Program district CA -SR, separated from the river. The Mississippi River and adjacent river corridor lands are designated and classified as "Wild & Scenic River" and "Critical Area" and are regulated by provisions of the Mississippi River Corridor Overlay District Section and any other applicable City ordinance provisions including Section 1001.07 Mississippi River Corridor of the Zoning Code.(see Figure 11). b. Discuss the project's compatibility with nearby land uses, zoning, and plans listed in Item 9a above, concentrating on implications for environmental effects. The current zoning of the site consists of A-1 Agricultural District and S-A Special Agriculture District. As discussed earlier, the proposed zoning of the study area will be a Master Plan and the entirety of the study area is currently being re -guided. The existing use of the study area is identified as Agriculture and the 2030 future land uses are identified as Mixed Use, Low -Medium Density Residential, Low -Density Residential, and Agricultural Preserve. The proposed land uses for the site will include Low -Density Residential - Single Family, Low -Medium Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, Commercial - Neighborhood/Retail, Wetlands/Wetland Buffers/Greenspace, and Parks/Open Space/Clubhouse/ Recreational. While the mix of anticipated uses will change somewhat between the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, this area of the community has long been viewed as a prime development site and a main target for urbanization. Surrounding areas are also guided for low -density single-family residential use which cannot be realized until this development takes place. There are no anticipated land use incompatibilities as a result of this proposed development. c. Identify measures incorporated into the proposed project to mitigate any potential incompatibility as discussed in Item 9b above. MITIGATION MEASURES (QUESTION 9): Mitigation measures that will be incorporated into the proposed project to mitigate against the potential 16
