CMP Part 3B. General Land Use Plan City of Orono Community Management Plan 2020-2040 Part 3B, Page 20 2. Allowed uses in this area include professional offices, limited service uses, retail uses accessory to the office use, and senior and assisted living uses. 3. Access to all uses will be via Kelley Parkway. Direct access to Willow Drive, if allowed, are intended to be right-in/right-out only. There shall be no direct access points onto Wayzata Boulevard. 4. “Big box” retail uses will not be allowed within this area. 9. Park/ Recreation/ Open Space Park, Recreation, and Open Space Land Use includes public and private parks and natural areas throughout the community. The recreational facilities identified on the Land Use Plan are principally large natural or open space areas which are compatible with their Rural Area location. 10. Industrial This district provides space for industrial activities for companies that are able and willing to achieve superior standards of design and environmental protection. Industrial land uses should be restricted to areas abutting major transportation corridors and individually cited so as to minimum negative impacts on residential areas. Based on their heavy hardcover needs, industrial areas should be located further than 1,000 feet from lakes. The Metropolitan Council requires that communities provide a measurement of forecasted employment. Acceptable measures include floor area ratios, building footprint percentages or impervious surface percentages. Orono anticipates that new development in the Industrial land use will tend to result in FAR of 0.32 to 0.4. There is about 10 acres of vacant or underdeveloped industrially guided property. Applying the same methodology as outlined in the Mixed Use section: Total Sq Ft (Total SF * FAR) Jobs, Assuming 1500 sqft per warehouse worker FAR 0.32 139,392 93 FAR 0.40 174,240 116 The City can anticipate an additional 93-116 jobs upon the full buildout of the Industrial areas. These two areas, using the conservative estimates outlines, demonstrate Orono can accommodate employment growth projections. 11. Major Highway and Railway Uses Identifies land occupied by federal or state highways and railway improvements. NAVARRE AREA PLAN In 2018, the City completed the Navarre Area Plan (NAP) with the aid of a Planning Consultant, WSB and Associates. This planning process focused on the land range vision and land use goals for the Navarre area, and to inform the Comprehensive Plan, for this update. The proposed land uses shown on Map 3B- 3 include the findings from the Navarre Area Plan. Map 3B-3a shows the Navarre area specifically.
