Zoning Amendment; LR-lC-1 Density Credit <br />February 10,1999 <br />Page 2 <br />. « . i' <br />LR-lC-1 History <br />The LR-lC-1 subdistrict was created in 1975 as part of the general rezoning of the City. There were <br />likely two specific reasons to create the LR-lC-1 subdistrict in 1975: <br />1 <br />2. <br />A majority of the properties rezoned to LR-lC-1 in 1975 were zoned B-1 <br />(Commercial Business), B-2 (Lakeshore Commercial), or I (Industrial) prior to the <br />rezoning, and the density credit may have been a concession to the property owners <br />for the rezoning from Commercial/Industrial to residential. <br />The LR-lC-1 would provide a location in the City for somewhat higher density <br />housing than the 1/2 acre residential district allowed, and allow such housing to be <br />attached for more efficient use of the land. <br />The properties zoned LR-lC-1 upon adoption of the 1975 zoning code included the following: <br />The Navarre theatre property. <br />All land west of the Navarre theatre between County Road 15 and the ran. .ad tracks <br />to the city border, except the Hennepin County truck station site. <br />Approximately 5 acres at the southeast comer of Camian Street and County Road 15, <br />north of the lagoon. <br />The area east of Lakeside Marina on North Shore Drive to the east boundary' of north <br />Shore Marina (included North Shore Marina). <br />In November 1976 the B-5 Limited Neighborhood Business District was created and most of the LR- <br />lC-1 parcels between County Road 15 and the truck station property were rezoned to B-5. In 1984, <br />North Shore Marina was rezoned back to B-2 Lakeshore Business. .\s a result of these two <br />revisions, the remaining properties within the LR-lC-1 today include (See Exhibit E): <br />The 9-acre plat of'Navarro' on the old Navarre Theatre site (24 twinhomes). <br />The 10-acre Tonka Ventures PRD site <br />The 2.25 acre Sohns property and the 2.2 acre Larson property <br />The 3/4 acre single family residence site west of the truck station driveway <br />The 5 acres at Carman Street and County Road 1 5 containing 4 single family homes; <br />the east half of this area is attached to the developed single family properties south <br />of the lagoon <br />The 3 acres between the marinas on North Shore Drive containing 4 existing homes, <br />with a single family residence and a duplex expected to be built in 1999.
