Title
Amending Chapters 60, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 69 of the Legislative Code and the Zoning Map as recommended in the Central Corridor and Traditional Neighborhood Zoning Study. (Public testimony will be heard only on the amendments introduced on April 13.)

Body
WHEREAS, the direction for the Central Corridor and Traditional Neighborhood zoning study came out of the Central Corridor Development Strategy (CCDS), adopted in October of 2007, and the creation of the Central Corridor Overlay District in April of 2008. The study was designed to meet goals in the CCDS by facilitating higher density development, a reduced demand for parking and more of a pedestrian- and transit-oriented environment. The study began in the spring of 2010; and

WHEREAS, the study area includes approximately 541 acres along the Central Corridor between Marion and Emerald streets; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined that the number of real estate descriptions affected by the proposed zoning amendments renders obtaining written consent impractical; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held public hearings on November 19, 2010 and December 3, 2010; and

WHEREAS, on March 4, 2011 the Planning Commission recommended adoption of the Central Corridor and Traditional Neighborhood Zoning Study Code amendments dated March 4, 2011, and rezoning of a number of parcels in the study area (map attached) in accordance with and related to the objectives, strategies, and recommendations in the adopted CCDS and station area plans; and

WHEREAS, a public hearing before the City Council having been conducted on April 6, 2011, at which all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard, the Council having considered all the facts and recommendations concerning the proposed zoning amendments, pursuant to the authority granted by and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Minnesota Statutes § 462.357;
