� : <br /> EXHIBIT E <br /> Analysis of Individual Property Change Request <br /> -Requests & Comments from Neighboring Property Owners - <br /> There were two specific notable requests made at the public hearing by residents or property <br /> owners with regards to the re-guiding of certain properties near them: <br /> A) We have received a letter (actually three of the same letter signed by three different <br /> neighbors) requesting that the two parcels in Navarre containing the bowling alley and <br /> "The Mud" coffee shop, not be included in the mixed use area. See Exhibit E. The basis <br /> for the request is their belief that high density development would not be acceptable <br /> because of the increased traffic, accidents, lack of adequate parking, noise, etc. They <br /> have also indicated that an Office/Professional use designation may be acceptable. <br /> Wee have not heard from the owners of these properties; we don't know whether they <br /> support the re-guiding. However, these properties have long been the subject of inquiries <br /> to the City from potential developers asking whether it is possible to redevelop them in a <br /> mixed use scenario, with residential above main-floor retail. The mixed use designation <br /> would open the door for that option. The details of how mixed use develops will be the <br /> subject of new ordinances that must be developed before mixed use can occur. <br /> The two sites total 2.5 acres in area, yielding a 15 dwelling unit count at the proposed <br /> mixed use density of 6 units per acre. Removing these properties from the density <br /> calculation does not have much impact on the City's overall density goal. <br /> Planning Commission should review the request and consider whether these properties <br /> should be guic�ed for mixed use. <br /> B) A number of property owners adjacent to or near the property on Willow Drive (Parcel <br /> Group 3) expressed concern at the hearing regarding the proposed 10-15 units per acre <br /> density for that site. See the Draft Minutes, Exhibit G. Those commenting were <br /> encouraged to attend the upcoming meetings regaxding CommonBond's proposal for <br /> affordable/workforce housing at that location. <br /> ' <br />
