II. Presentation of I-394 Corridor Planning Information
Mark Grimes, Director of Planning and Development stated that the City Council
would like to see something from the Planning Commissioners regarding the I-394
Corridor. There is an economic slow down on developing right now and this would
be a good time to review the I-394 corridor information.

staff, on the "I-394 Corridor".
Beth Knobl auch presented aerial maps showing the 1 ayout of the I-394 corridor.
There was some discussion regarding the residential areas and what part they
would have in the rezoning of this corridor. Comments were made not to make
hasty conclusions regarding the residential areas until after I-394 has been
compl et ed.
It was suggested that the I-394 corridor have a special zoning district, exemp-
ting the residential areas and study residential areas three to four years after
district is rezoned.
Mark Grimes suggested that the Planning Commissioners redefine the I-394 corri-
dor zoning district and have a meeting with the City Council.
