The subject property is approximately 9.3 acres, located <br />between the new Village Bank and Rivenwick Village townhomes on the north side of Riverdale <br />Drive. The property is zoned Mixed Use - Planned Unit Development (MU -PUD), which <br />accommodates the proposed retail and restaurant uses. <br />Associate Planner Geisler indicated the concept plan proposes three buildings: a restaurant, <br />single -user retail building, and a large multiple -user retail building. <br />Associate Planner Geisler explained because this project is located in the MU -PUD district, a <br />preliminary and final site plan will be processed along with a subdivision request. This sketch <br />plan was reviewed by City Council at a work session. Council was generally in favor of the <br />concept plan. Council indicated they would like to see the applicant explore options to provide <br />pedestrian connections between the new commercial buildings and the townhomes to the east. <br />Mr. Marty Klain, Hack Real Estate Associates, provided an overview of the sketch plan for the <br />proposed commercial project in Rivenwick Village. The plan includes three buildings: <br />restaurant, single -user retail building, and a large multiple -user retail building. Mr. Klain stated <br />there will be a 25 foot wide paved brick area to bring residents from the adjoining area to the <br />commercial properties. This area will also include landscaping, tables and benches. Mr. Klain <br />stated the delivery areas will be closed, which will reduce the noise. Also, they will try to <br />include landscaping within the parking area. They will be looking for basic mom and pop shops; <br />Planning Commission/ February 1, 2007 <br />Page 10 of 12 <br />
