Before discussing VRC to the EDA and City Council, staff feels that the Planning Commission should review it from a land use perspective and provide comments to them. When reviewing this material, keep in mind that the time frame for the concept was 2001 -2005. At that time, The City had just approved 420 housing permits in 2001, 556 units in 2002 and 533 units in 2003. The recession was nowhere in sight and plats in Vermillion Grove and Autumn Glen were being approved. The concept evolved from the need to provide additional commercial uses to serve our residents in both small and large building formats. The community was intent on maintaining the existing downtown commercial area and locating additional commercial land uses adjacent to it. Because of the housing stock surrounding the downtown, there was a need to look elsewhere for larger tracks of land to provide for commercial buildings (i.e. big box stores). Staff determined that the Spruce Street Corridor area met the needs for additional commercial space desired by the community and also met the requirements of being located near the downtown. The common tie between the downtown and the Spruce Street Corridor was Spruce Street. The design of the Spruce Street Corridor proposed a downtown -like atmosphere in the area which is now Vermillion River Crossing, a larger commercial area to the west of the Dakota County salt shed where big -box type uses would be located, and multi family housing south of the Vermillion River with bridge crossings for the residents to walk or drive to the shops to the north. A center "spine" corridor (Dushane Parkway) would provide a "downtown feel" with shops on either side of the street, angled parking, and well designed sitting areas. The VRC area was proposed to be a walkable community with commercial and housing opportunities in close proximity to each other. The zoning text makes it possible for housing to locate on the second floor of a building and commercial down below. Staff has included a number of attachments to this memo and we will review them in depth at the May 14, 2013 meeting. The attachments are as follows: 1. Spruce Street Corridor Master Plan 2. Permitted and Conditional Uses 3. Design Standards for the Spruce Street Commercial District 4. Plat/Layout of Vermillion River Crossing 5. Landscape /Architectural Plans for VRC Staff looks forward to your comments on the original concept and design of VRC. RECOMMENDATION Review the concepts for the Spruce Street Corridor and Vermillion River Crossing plans.
