The development proposal also preserves two sites for future Public/Quasi-Public uses. The first <br />is the fire station site in the northeast corner of the site, This portion of the plat is identified as <br />Public/Quasi-Public in.the Comprehensive Plan and is currently zoned Public/Quasi-Public. No <br />change in land use designation or zoning is required for the future fire station site. <br />The second Public/Quasi-Public site is intended to be held by the City for a future school site. <br />While the School District cannot commit that this property will be used for a school, the City <br />Council and the School Board have met on this issue. In previous work sessions, the City <br />Council has expressed a strong desire to preserve the land around the current -City Hall campus <br />for a future school use. The site consists of a portion of the City Hall Campus and the backyards <br />of 3 existing residences south of City Hall. It will be necessary to rezone the portions of the 3 <br />existing residences being incorporated into the future school site from R-1 Residential to <br />Public/Quasi-Public. The 3 homesteads will retain their R-1 Residential zoning. <br />Facilitating this development proposal will enhance a potential future school site with public <br />sewer and water, roads and sidewalks. <br />Recommendation: <br />City Staff recommends introduction of the proposed ordinance to rezone portions of The <br />Meadow. The final adoption of the ordinance will not be brought to City Council until after <br />Metropolitan Council approval of the related Comprehensive Plan Amendment. <br />Commission Action: <br />Motion by Councilmember _ and seconded by Councilmember to adopt <br />Resolution #05-11-� adopting Findings of Fact #0� relating to a request from GM Land <br />Development to rezone certain property from B-1 Business and Public/Quasi-Public to Planned <br />Unit Development; and R-1 Residential to Public -Quasi -Public. <br />-and- <br />Motion by Councilmember and seconded by Councilmember to introduce <br />Ordinance #05-____ to rezone certain property from B-1 Business and Public/Quasi-Public to <br />Planned Unit.
