Proposed Rezonings to Implement the Seven Corners Gateway Plan
BACKGROUND
In October 2001, the Planning Commission initiated a process to prepare redevelopment plans
for station areas along the then-proposed Riverview Corridor Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) line.
Based on the recommendations in these station area plans, the Planning Commission
subsequently initiated a 40-acre study in November 2002 to allow for possible rezonings along
the corridor. Although BRT along 7'" Street appears to no longer be a viable option, the City
recognizes that the corridor, already a significant transit route for thousands of people every
day, is an important locus for redevelopment. In light of this potential, rezonings from B3 to
TN2 are being proposed to allow for redevelopment at key sites along W. 7�' Street.
The Seven Corners Gateway Plan was adopted by the City Council in 2000 as the planning and
urban design framework for the area bounded by Ketlogg Boulevard, 1-35E, Grand/Ramsey and
Exchange Street. With the goals of maintaining a diversity of land uses, retaining the area's
unique sense of place, protecting neighborhood character and taking advantage of an improved
economic climate, the Seven Corners Gateway Plan guides urban design, transportation and
parking, new residential development, business retention and expansion, and heritage
preservation.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed rezonings in January 2005,
and recommends their approval by the City Council.
