This City staff has been working on a Downtown Redevelopment Ordinance that implements the overall strategy developed in the Comprehensive Plan that will make development in the Downtown more conducive for redevelopment such as reduced setbacks, reduced parking requirement and the ability to utilize public right-of-ways for public improvements. This request qts with that vision. The proposed zoning will allow uses that are appropriate for development within the Anna's "downtown" area. The proposed structure(s) for the site could contain approximately 17,800 square feet of restaurant, office, retail and apartments. No apartments are requested at this time; however, the mechanism will be in place to allow dwelling units. If apartments are requested later a Specific Use Permit (SUP) would be required. Additionally, off-strect/on-street parking improvements are anticipated and phased with this project as shown on the attached site plan. The proposed zoning is in keeping with Alma's Comprehensive Plan and meets the goal to make the downtown more sustainable by providing places to work, live and play in close proximity. As shown on the site plan the development will utilize the existing unimproved alley for access and Phase III parking will utilize Interurban Street right-of-way. Phase I plans have been submitted and are under review at this time and will be subject to approval by the City Council of this zoning request and site plan.
