Proposed amendments include substitution of current Development Code parking standards for the more stringent requirement in the existing Agreement, and incorporation of minor modifications to the project site caused by the recent widening of 1-215. The subject site is a 61-acre regional mall located at 500 South Inland Center rive in the CR-1, Commercial Regional Malls land use district. The applicant/representative requests that the Mayor and Common Council approve Development Agreement Amendment No. 08-01 as recommended by the Planning Commission at their meeting of June 22, 2011. The Planning Commission voted unanimously in favor of the proposed development agreement amendment. Commissioners Eble, Heasley, Jimenez, Machen, Mulvihill and Rawls voted in favor of the motion and Commissioners Coute and Durr were absent. Due to current economic conditions, expansion for the Mall as anticipated in Development Agreement No. 91-01 has been challenging. The applicant/representative requests that the completion dates for Phases I and II be extended and that minor clarification and updates be added to simplify certain sections of the agreement, to enhance processing of further expansion of the Mall. The Planning Commission staff report (Attachment 1) contains a more detailed analysis of DA 08-01.
