As there are several moving parts, and as the City desires that all the components of the proposed
project travel as one, it is the recommendation and intent of the City Commission that the various
components [the development agreement, vacation and easement, and zoning ordinances] travel
under one schedule. It is the intent of the Mayor and City Commission that the vacation of 6th Street
(with cross utility and access easements); the final approval of the development agreement (second
reading, public hearing), and the adoption of any applicable amendments to the City's
Comprehensive Plan, and zoning ordinances be adopted at the same time, and that none of the three
parts of the underlying development be moved forward without the other components; including but
not limited to, the design of the proposed 3.2 acres park along West Avenue to the west, moving
towards Alton Road, to the east, between 6th Street to the south and 8th Street to the north.
The proposed 3.2 acres world-class park design shall be an exhibit to the development agreement
and which design shall travel with the other components to the above referenced development
agreement, vacation and zoning actions. This concept of simultaneous review was discussed by the
Land Use and Development Committee during its September 28, 2018. The Land Use Corrnittee
supported the simultaneous review of all components of the proposed development agreement,
vacation, design of the park, and possible comprehensive plan and zoning code revisions.
CONCLUSION
Adopt the resolution requiring the simultaneous review of the (1) vacation of 6th Street; (2) approval
of a development agreement and (3) adoption of any comprehensive plan amendments or zoning
ordinances that would result in the (A) dedication, design and construction of a 3.2 acres City Park;
(b) delineate development rights attributable to the developer; and (c) vacate 6th street, with cross
utility and access easements being provided to the City.
