Commissioners:
Subject: Lake Shore Drive Cooperative
A portion of the September 22, 1980, city council meeting will
be held jointly with .the HRA. Representatives of Cooperative Living
Center, (CLC) will present a report regarding the results of the pre-
liminary market survey which was authorized by the HRA and city council
in August, for the cooperative housing facility proposed to be con-
structed on the south side of 66th Street at Graham Avenue.
The marketing results are favorable. Thus, following the CLC
report, the City Council and the HRA should consider taking certain
actions including:
1. Authorization by the HRA and City Council to proceed
with the second phase of the marketing program;
2. Referral by the City Council to the Planning Commission of
a) the rezoning to permit construction under
Planned Unit Development provisions of the
• ordinance;
b) street and alley vacations within the site
area; and,
c) disposition of property owned or to be owned
by the city (a portion of the Pie Shop parcel
and the Mobil Oil Parcel).
State statutes have established maximum time limitations for
review of some of these items. Regarding the rezoning, 60 days from
the date of referral is the maximum time permitted. For a Planning
Commission finding regarding the sale of city-owned property to the
HRA, the council may establish its own deadline.
It is recommended that the HRA and City Council jointly authorize
Cooperative Living Centers to proceed with the second phase of their
marketing program.
Respectfully submitted,
