Revitalization Commission Agenda DATE Page 2 of 3 citizens of Louisville want to spend $200 -$300K for a quiet zone in that area, that's an option. Heather- we aren't honestly aware of exactly how much it costs and how that will align with the priorities of the whole city. Expect they'll have to do an update to the environmental studies at some point, and perhaps that's an option for that to be revisited. VIII. Update on Request for Proposals - Integrated Infrastructure Implementation Plan, Louisville FasTracks Station Area & Hwy 42 Corridor — see planning's update above. IX. Business Matters of Commission a. Discussion/Direction /Action on LRC letter(s) to Planning Commission concerning recommendation on amendments to mixed use design guidelines Michael stated that shortly after our last meeting, city staff strongly counseled Carlos and he to reconsider the LRC proposal and have done so. With the consent of the Emily Jasiak and Rob Lathrop, we'd like to propose a different motion. Carlos and he agree that allowing residences on 1st floor by special review of use is acceptable, and is a minor change to the mixed -use guidelines. If we withdraw the motion and put forth the subsequent motion, everyone on the LRC can support it. That was his hope. Carlos- Motion to reconsider the motion he previously made. Rob Lathrop — Second Carlos — Amend my prior motion to read as follows — (New motion — update Table 1 — under mixed use residential (MU -R) - to "R" as opposed to "Yes." Intent- allow first floor residential by special review use. Make red line changes were necessary to be consistent with the motion, e.g. the land use table, amend text on page 9 /or page 16 of the packet — make it consistent with the table. Michael- there may be additional changes suggested in the next comp plan revision, but that is not currently affected by this amendment. Rob Lathrop asked if a building is built, and the 1st floor remains vacant for a year- do they lose their special review? Troy responded No. Mayor- We need to be clear this does not affect density, height etc- it is not a change in the comp plan. We want to be aware of an election Nov 1. Suggest this to be clear in our memo to the various parties.
