AGENDA

The purpose of this special joint site walk is to hear the applicant’s presentation and for members of the City Council, City Plan Commission and the public to gain a greater understanding of the site and scope of this mixed-use major land development proposal. Please note, this site walk is not a traditional public hearing. A series of required public hearings will be held by both bodies prior to any formal decision being made on this proposal. No action will be taken other than calls to order and adjournment.

Owner/Applicant:  Legion Development Inc, 661 Park Avenue, Cranston, RI 02910

Who’s invited:  City Council, City Plan Commission, and any interested members of the public

Proposal Summary:  The applicant proposes to raze the existing structure and develop a four-story mixed-use building with approximately 80 residential units and first-floor commercial (uses yet unidentified). The Major Land Development project requires an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map [FLUM] from “Neighborhood Commercial Services” to “Special Redevelopment Area” and a zone change from C-3 (General Business) to C-3 with conditions to allow the requested density, building height, permitted uses and potentially reduced off-street parking.

Future Public Hearings:  An application has not yet been submitted so no date for future public hearings are available at this time. The project will require public hearings before the Development Plan Review Committee, City Plan Commission, Ordinance Committee, and City Council.
