Dunbar, President <br /> Dunbar Development Corporation <br /> 5000 Glenwood Avenue, Suite 200 <br /> Minneapolis, MN 55422-5146 <br /> Re: Proposed development at Brown Road/US 12 <br /> Dear Mr. Dunbar: <br /> As we discussed on Monday, your proposal for senior housing and an office building on the Rebers <br /> site poses a number of planning challenges for the City, in terms of requiring the creation of a new <br /> zoning district and performance standards. This is not in and of itself a problem, but the schedule <br /> necessary to arrive at final project approvals prior to the end of the year may be difficult. <br /> Your proposal will require the following applications: <br /> 1. A request for an amendment of the zoning chapter to create a new zoning district to allow <br /> the proposed senior housing use. City staff will draft an amendment that creates a new <br /> zoning district with performance standards to accomplish this intended use.For the moment <br /> for discussion purposes we will name this potential district "MFSR" (Multi-Family Senior <br /> Residential).However,we are also contemplating a single new PUD district that allows both <br /> office and certain multi-family residential as permitted uses. <br /> 2. A request for rezoning of the property. <br /> 3. A request for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the guide plan for this area <br /> from strictly commercial to allowing multi-family residential under specified circumstances, <br /> as a conditional use and most likely as a PUD/PRD. <br /> 4. A request for subdivision(platting)of the site into two separate tax parcels(and to eliminate <br /> the current Outlot status of the property). <br /> 5. A request for conditional use permit to develop the entire site as a PUD/PRD with MFSR <br /> as the underlying district for the residential portion and B-6 Highway Commercial District <br /> as the underlying district for the office portion. <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
