MOTION APPROVED. Public Hearing: RZ2006-001 through RZ2006-004 Rezoning for 715 & 721 Old Highway 8 NW and 706 & 736 4th Avenue NW and a Comprehensive Plan amendment for 715 & 721 Old Highway 8 NW The Rezoning and Comprehensive Plan Amendment requests are the proposed rezoning of the following properties: 715 Old Highway 8 NW: B-2, Neighborhood Business to B- 4, Downtown Business, 721 Old Highway 8 NW: B-2, Neighborhood Business to B-4, Downtown Business, 706 4th Avenue NW: R-1A, Single Family Residential to B-4, Downtown Business, 736 4th Avenue NW: R-1A, Single Family Residential to B-4, Downtown Business and proposed comprehensive plan amendment for 715 Old Highway 8 NW: Low Density Residential to City Center, 721 Old Highway 8 NW: Low Density Residential to City Center, 706 4th Avenue NW: NO CHANGE from Low Density Residential, 736 4th Avenue NW: NO CHANGE from Low Density Residential.

The B-4 standards allow establishment of a General Development Plan for the site whereby redevelopment of the Marv’s Transmission site can proceed as proposed. In addition, the proposed rezoning allows for redevelopment that is consistent with the existing development characteristics of New Brighton’s downtown. In addition to a Rezoning request, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment must also be processed. The current 2020 Land Use Plan guides the subject properties for Low Density Residential. This land use designation not only conflicts with the existing use at 721 Old Highway 8 NW (Kemper Engineering) but the proposed redevelopment project and the City’s existing Zoning Map. The proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment is to re-guide both 715 and 721 Old Highway 8 NW to City Center. The City Center land
