Planning Commission
The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the conditional use permit. There were no comments at the public hearing.
Background
Glimcher Northtown Venture, LLC is the owner of Northtown Mall. At this time Glimcher would like to replat part of the mall property into two new lots.
Specifically, the applicant would like to make a new lot (Lot 2) for future development. The remainder of the parcel (Lot 1) will remain as one lot for the existing Herberger's store, parking and mall drives. The proposed plat contains two lots. Lot 1 will be 11.44 acres. Lot 2 will be 1.06 acres.
The Zoning Ordinance requires a conditional use permit for shared access drives and parking. Therefore, any development on the Lot 2 will require a conditional use permit for those uses. The City will require a shared access and parking agreement with the development of Lot 2.
No park dedication is required for this plat as all fees have been paid by the property owner in previous years.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
