The submitted plans also show an impervious surface of the site of' 35%. The draft Mississippi <br />River Overlay District standards require an impervious surface of 25 %. The increased <br />impervious surface is permissible as part of the PUD, if Council is so inclined. <br />The City Council has discussed the Ebony Woods case numerous times, primarily for review of <br />revised building elevations. More discussion is contained in the preliminary plat case. <br />Recommendation: <br />As discussed above, the draft Mississippi River Overlay District code and the Comprehensive <br />Plan require new development in the River Corridor to be processed as a PUD. Staff also <br />recommended approval of the PUD request because all other lot standards and setback <br />requirements are being met, and because the proposed twinhomes will have less bulk and a lower <br />profile than the townhome buildings previously proposed for the site. The Planning Commission <br />reviewed the rezoning request at their September 7, 2006 meeting and recommended denial of <br />the rezoning request, because of a lack of compelling reason to allow a different use than is <br />provided with the current B -2 zoning. <br />Council Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #07 -10 - adopting Findings of Fact # to approve the request to <br />rezone the subject property from B -2 Business to Planned Unit Development. <br />-and - <br />Motion to introduce Ordinance #07 - rezoning the property from B -2 Business to Planned Unit <br />Development, contingent upon approval of the request for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, <br />preliminary plat approval, and preliminary site plan approval, based on the Findings of Fact. <br />-OR- <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #07-04- Findings of Fact #_ to deny the request to <br />rezone the subject property from B -2 Business to Planned Unit Development. <br />Reviewed By: <br />City Administrator: <br />Community Development Director <br />—144— <br />CC: 4.10.07 <br />
