ACTION REQUESTED:

INTRODUCTION:

Orion Investment is requesting a Zoning Ordinance Amendment for a completely new redevelopment project for the subject property. This site received a rezoning approval to Planned Unit Development-16 in 2019; however, the project was never constructed. The underlying, or previous zoning on the site is POD, Planned Office District. The existing PUD would allow two six-story buildings with 299 unit of housing and 30,000 square feet of retail/restaurants and 10 owner occupied townhomes. The previous POD, Planned Office District, would allow 113,000 square feet of office/medical office use.

 

The existing office buildings and parking ramp on the sites would be removed. The existing parking ramp is in a very poor state of repair. The project would be developed in two phases. The first phase would be the construction of a five-story 124,620 square foot office building and coffee shop with underground parking at the 7250 France Site. The 7200 site would include a ponding area, sidewalks, green space, landscaping and surface parking where the future building pad would be.

 

Phase 2 would include a similar sized building in height and square footage, with the future use of housing with retail (150 units). Permanent parking for Phase 1 would be required to be included in the Phase 2 development.

 

This request would require the following:

 

A Rezoning/Ordinance Amendment to revise the PUD-16, Planned Unit Development District to establish a new Overall Development Plan and Site Plan review for Phase 1.
